The San Diego Padres will be without their ace on Saturday against the Atlanta Braves. Michael King was scratched from his start and Mike Shildt will hand the ball to Sean Reynolds to start the game. It is a tough spot for the 27-year-old reliever to come into, especially after seeing what Ronald Acuna Jr. did to his team on Friday.
The decision to scratch King from his start comes as the former New York Yankee deals with shoulder stiffness in his throwing arm, according to the team's social media page.
