The Padres scratched Joe Musgrove from Wednesday’s scheduled start due to right shoulder soreness.
Fellow right-hander Nick Martinez (4-4, 3.93 ERA) will take the mound for the series finale at Colorado on Wednesday afternoon.
The club was optimistic that Musgrove will be ready to take the mound again for Tuesday’s series opener at Seattle.
Musgrove, 30, is 10-3 with a 3.05 ERA through 17 starts. He has struck out 97 batters in 97 1/3 innings.
The former All-Star is 60-57 with a 3.72 ERA in 187 career games (161 starts) with the Houston Astros, Pittsburgh Pirates and Padres.
