The San Diego Padres have signed outfielder Nick Castellanos and right-handers Griffin Canning and Germán Márquez, pending physicals. Castellanos, a two-time All-Star released by the Phillies, will join the Padres for the league minimum, while Canning and Márquez aim for spots in the starting rotation. San Diego, coming off a playoff season, is enhancing its roster after key departures and injuries. Additionally, the Padres recently acquired veteran slugger Miguel Andujar, continuing their pursuit of experienced talent.
