The San Diego Padres have designated catcher Brett Sullivan for assignment to make room for shortstop Mason McCoy on the 40-man roster. Sullivan's path to the majors has been noteworthy; drafted in 2015 by the Rays, he struggled in their system before bouncing around teams. Despite limited opportunity, he made his MLB debut in early 2023. His performance has been underwhelming with a .206 batting average. The Padres now face a week to either trade Sullivan or try to pass him through waivers before potentially assigning him to the minors if he clears.
