Fantasy Impact: Ornelas went 3-for-11 with a home run for the Padres this spring. The outfielder made his major league debut with San Diego last season and went just 1-for-14 with an RBI in seven games. Ornelas is a career .269 hitter in 3,492 plate appearances spanning eight minor league seasons. He'll likely begin the season in Triple-A El Paso.

Garrett Hawkins has been reassigned to Triple-A El Paso by the San Diego Padres. (Source: San Diego Padres on X)
Fantasy Impact: Hawkins appeared in six games for the Padres this spring and allowed three runs on seven hits with three walks and six strikeouts in 5.1 innings. The right-handed reliever posted ridiculous numbers between High-A Fort Wayne and Double-A San Antonio last season as he combined to go 9-1 with 10 saves and a 1.50 ERA. In 60 innings, he allowed just 28 hits and struck out 80 batters. If he pitches like that at Triple-A El Paso, Hawkins could make his major league debut at some point in 2026.
