Mason McCoy isn’t expected on the Padres’ Opening Day roster, per team updates, and will head to Triple-A El Paso despite a weekend 40-man addition.

McCoy’s recent 40-man roster add over the weekend won’t keep him from Triple-A El Paso Monday, with options left, slotting him as Padres utility depth in the minors. Fantasy managers in deep dynasty leagues might stash him, banking on his versatility for a 2025 call-up to San Diego if injuries create a need later on.

The San Diego Padres selected the contract of IF Mason McCoy from Triple-A El Paso.

McCoy officially makes the Padres' Opening Day roster after slashing .273/.368/.515 this spring. He is expected to serve as the primary backup at most infield positions.

The Padres placed Mason McCoy on the 10-day IL with back inflammation.

McCoy will miss the rest of the regular season. He could return for the postseason barring any setbacks.
