Padres designated RHP Alek Jacob for assignment.

Jacob’s removal from San Diego’s 40-man roster opens up a spot for Jason Adam to return from the injured list. The 28-year-old made only three relief appearances for the Padres this season.

Padres optioned RHP Alek Jacob to Triple-A El Paso.

Jacob heads back to the minors to free up a roster spot for swingman Jhony Brito ahead of Tuesday’s game against the Diamondbacks. The 28-year-old middle reliever has been up-and-down for San Diego the last couple years and has allowed three runs across five innings in the big leagues this season.

Padres recalled RHP Alek Jacob from Triple-A El Paso.

The 28-year-old hurler has made two appearances with the Padres this season, posting a 9.00 ERA, 2.50 WHIP and a 3/2 K/BB ratio over two innings of work while picking up a victory. He’ll add a fresh arm to the club’s bullpen with Randy Vásquez (ankle) hitting the injured list on Friday.

Padres optioned RHP Alek Jacob to Triple-A El Paso.

The Padres needed to clear a spot on their active roster for the debut of Lucas Giolito on Sunday and unfortunately for Jacob he was the odd man out this time. The 27-year-old gave up two runs without recording an out during Saturday’s appearance against the Mariners. He’ll bide his time at the Triple-A level until his services are needed once more.

Padres optioned RHP Alek Jacob to Triple-A El Paso.

The Padres needed to free up a spot on their active roster for the return of Matt Waldron on Friday and unfortunately for Jacob he drew the short straw this time around. The 27-year-old hurler made one appearance during his time with the Padres, firing two scoreless frames with a 3/1 K/BB ratio. He should get another opportunity with the Padres in relatively short order.

Padres recalled RHP Alek Jacob from Triple-A El Paso.

Jacob provides San Diego with a fresh bullpen arm for the next couple days until the club needs to bring up Matt Waldron to replace an injured Nick Pivetta (elbow) in the rotation. The 27-year-old righty has made 39 appearances in the big leagues since 2023.

Padres optioned RHP Alek Jacob and INF Mason McCoy to Triple-A El Paso.

McCoy will probably be the first person bumped from the Padres’ 40-man when they need another spot. Jacob, who has a 4.06 ERA in 51 innings as a major leaguer, had a chance of winning a bullpen spot, but he probably didn’t help his chances by playing for Team Italy. He’ll likely get a look soon enough anyway.

Jacob rejoins San Diego’s relief mix with high-leverage relief ace Jason Adam done for the season after suffering a ruptured left quad tendon earlier this week. The 27-year-old righty holds a pedestrian 5.40 ERA across 30 innings in 26 appearances this season at the highest level
