Cobb Hightower News: Back at full strength

Hightower (hamstring) has gone 4-for-22 with two RBI and four runs scored over six games since being assigned to Single-A Lake Elsinore on April 30.

Hightower's season debut was delayed by a hamstring injury, but he looks to be back to full health. He's had a tough time finding his groove at the dish in his first taste of professional baseball but should see plenty of opportunities to acclimate at Single-A. The Padres selected Hightower with the 88th overall pick of the 2024 First-Year Player Draft.
