The Padres have signed former fourth overall pick Riley Pint to a minor league contract, as reported by MLB.com. The 28-year-old right-handed pitcher, who previously spent eight seasons with the Rockies, faced challenges with command and briefly retired in 2021 before making a comeback. He experienced limited success in the majors and spent the 2023 season on the injured list but showcased improved velocity recently, reaching up to 97 MPH. Pint is expected to begin the upcoming season with Triple-A El Paso.
