PEORIA, Ariz. — Padres manager Bob Melvin made it clear before spring training started that this is Luis Campusano's time to show what he can be.
"He's gonna get a great opportunity to make some time for himself," Melvin said. "Based on how he does is gonna (determine) how much he plays during the season."
Austin Nola is the team's primary catcher, but the plan is for Campusano to be the only other catcher on the roster and to play quite a bit in 2023.
