Padres Austin Hedges stretches during a spring training practice. More than likely, Austin Hedges has not spent his last day in the minors. Today's promotion, however, could be for the foreseeable future.
With Tim Federowicz (knee) out through the All-Star break, Hedges will join the Padres today in San Francisco. He went 0-for-4 with a catcher's interference in Triple-A El Paso's 4-1 loss to Sacramento on Sunday, dropping his average to .324 in an otherwise stellar start to Hedges' 2015 season.
