Lands on injured list The Padres placed Heyward on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a left oblique strain.
Impact Heyward was left out of the starting lineup for a third consecutive game Saturday, and his oblique injury helps to explain why. He'll now be held out of action until early June upon moving to the IL, creating a pathway to regular playing time in left field for Brandon Lockridge, who will bat ninth Saturday. Luis Campusano was recalled from Triple-A El Paso in a corresponding move.

Sitting Saturday Heyward isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against Atlanta.
Impact Heyward will head to the bench for the third game in a row -- two of which have been against right-handed starters -- while Brandon Lockridge starts in left field and bats ninth.

Taking seat against RHP Heyward is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Blue Jays.
Impact The left-handed-hitting Heyward typically hits the bench when the Padres face southpaws, but the veteran outfielder will get a breather for the day game after a night game while Toronto sends righty Bowden Francis to the hill. Brandon Lockridge will step in as the Padres' starting left fielder in place of Heyward, who is batting just .179 on the season even with San Diego limiting his exposure to left-handed pitching.

On bench Sunday Heyward isn't part of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mariners.
Impact Heyward is batting 4-for-30 (.133) in May, and he's seen his playing time dwindle over the last week. He's absent from the lineup for the third time in four games -- all against right-handed starters. Gavin Sheets will fill in at left field while Manny Machado shifts to DH and Jose Iglesias plays third base.

Idle Friday Heyward isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against the Mariners.

Sitting Wednesday Heyward is not in the Padres' starting lineup against the Angels on Wednesday.
Impact Heyward has struggled at the plate this season and has gone 3-for-26 with one home run and six RBI since the beginning of May. Brandon Lockridge will start in left field and bat eighth while Heyward begins the game in the dugout.

Belts homer in rout Heyward went 1-for-6 with a three-run home run and an additional run scored against Colorado in Saturday's 21-0 victory.
Impact It's been a rough season so far for Heyward, who is batting just .191 on the campaign, but he got in on the fun during Saturday's offensive onslaught with a three-run homer to left field in the fourth inning. The veteran outfielder continues to start regularly against righties and sit against lefties, a situation that has resulted in him being in the lineup for just three of San Diego's past seven contests. Heyward's platoon role and lack of results this season make him difficult to roster in most fantasy formats.
