Effective as opener Sunday
Hart did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing a hit and no walks over three scoreless innings against the Giants. He struck out two.
Analyse
Tabbed as Sunday's opener after Michael King's start was pushed to Monday, Hart completed a season-high three scoreless innings. The lanky left-hander hasn't allowed a run over his past five outings spanning 9.2 innings, surrendering just five hits while posting a 10:2 K:BB during that stretch. Overall, Hart owns a 4.53 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 38:13 K:BB across 43.2 innings (29 appearances).

Set to start Sunday
Hart will start Sunday's game against the Giants.
Analyse
Hart hasn't pitched since serving as an opener Wednesday versus Colorado, and he'll fill the role again for Sunday's series finale versus San Francisco. He covered a season-high 2.2 innings during that outing and has lasted as least two frames in 13 of his 28 appearances, so a similar workload seems likely this time around. Michael King's start was pushed to Monday after he was previously penciled in to pitch Sunday.

Working as opener Wednesday
Hart will serve as the Padres' opening pitcher for Wednesday's game against the Rockies.
Analyse
Hart opened ahead of bulk reliever Griffin Canning in a game last week in Atlanta, and it's expected to be the same setup for Wednesday's contest. The lefty has posted a 5.21 ERA and 33:12 K:BB across 38 innings for the Padres this season.
