Kyle Hart - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Effective as opener Sunday Hart did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing a hit and no walks over three scoreless innings against the Giants. He struck out two.

Impact Tabbed as Sunday's opener after Michael King's start was pushed to Monday, Hart completed a season-high three scoreless innings. The lanky left-hander hasn't allowed a run over his past five outings spanning 9.2 innings, surrendering just five hits while posting a 10:2 K:BB during this stretch. Overall, Hart owns a 4.53 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 38:13 K:BB across 43.2 innings (29 appearances).

Set to start Sunday Hart will start Sunday's game against the Giants.

Impact Hart hasn't pitched since serving as an opener Wednesday versus Colorado, and he'll fill the role again for Sunday's series finale versus San Francisco. He covered a season-high 2.2 innings during that outing and has lasted as least two frames in 13 of his 28 appearances this year, so a similar workload seems likely this time around. Michael King's start was pushed to Monday after previously being penciled in to pitch Sunday.

Role TBD despite strong spring Hart has impressed this spring, but manager Craig Stammen said Sunday that the hurler's role is "TBD," per 97.3 The Fan.

Impact Hart has thrown the third-most innings (11.2) this spring among San Diego pitchers, and he's yet to give up a run while allowing seven hits and posting a 13:3 K:BB. Stammen acknowledge Hart's excellent performance in exhibition play and called the southpaw a "lefty weapon" while describing his regular-season role as up in the air. All six of Hart's outings this spring have come in relief, however, and Stammen emphasized Hart's effectiveness "being able to come in after a starter and kind of shut the game down and then get it to the back end," so the current lean is probably toward Hart initially taking on a bullpen role while serving as starting depth for a rotation that has yet to be fully determined.

San Diego Padres re-sign left-hander Kyle Hart to $1.2 million deal for next season with 2027 option

Kyle Hart is returning to the San Diego Padres with a $1.2 million, one-year contract that includes a club option for 2027

NOVEMBER 17, 2025 • Associated Press

Re-ups with San Diego The Padres re-signed Hart to a one-year contract with a club option for 2027 on Monday.

Impact The Padres declined Hart's $5 million club option for 2026 earlier this month, but they've now brought him back at a lesser rate. Hart split his time between the majors and minors in 2025, finishing with a 5.86 ERA and 37:13 K:BB over 43 innings covering six starts and 14 relief outings with the big club. The southpaw will compete for an Opening Day roster spot -- perhaps in a swingman role -- but does have minor-league options remaining.
