Starting Saturday
Vasquez will start Saturday's game against the Marlins.
Analyse
Vasquez will be making his first start since returning from the injured list last weekend, but because he hasn't pitched more than three innings in a game since the beginning of July, he's likely to act as more of an opener for JP Sears, who was originally in line to start Saturday's contest. Vasquez has been struggling mightily on the mound as of late, giving up 16 earned runs in just 13.1 frames across his last five appearances.

Works in bulk relief Sunday
Vasquez was credited with a hold while striking out two and allowing three hits and no walks over three scoreless innings of relief in Sunday's 19-2 win over the Royals.
Analyse
After the Padres reinstated Vasquez from the 15-day injured list prior to Sunday's contest, the right-hander headed to the bullpen for the series finale in Kansas City in what marked just his second relief appearance in 18 outings on the season. The Padres essentially deployed Vasquez in tandem with starter German Marquez, who was lifted after tossing 59 pitches and allowing two earned runs over three innings. Beyond Michael King, the Padres have been unable to generate quality results from any of their rotation members this season, so it wouldn't be surprising if Vasquez's move to the bullpen ends up being short-lived. Even if he doesn't displace Marquez in the rotation the next time a fifth starter is needed Friday in Miami, Vasquez could still end up being used in a tandem arrangement with Marquez once again.

Reinstated from injured list
San Diego reinstated Vasquez (ankle) from the 15-day injured list Sunday.
Analyse
Vasquez is back with San Diego after spending just over the minimum time on the shelf due to a bruised right ankle. The right-hander had started in 16 of his 17 appearances prior to landing the shelf while submitting a 4.71 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 60:27 K:BB across 84 innings, but he's expected to work out of the bullpen initially following his reinstatement, per Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune. German Marquez will start Sunday's series finale in Kansas City, and San Diego has already named JP Sears, Walker Buehler, Michael King and Griffin Canning as its probable starters for its upcoming four-game series in Atlanta.
