Padres’ All-Star Adam ruptures tendon

Padres reliever Jason Adam ruptured a tendon in his left quadriceps and was carted off the field Monday, a major blow to San Diego’s dominant bullpen.

Padres’ All-Star Adam ruptures tendon

GREGORY BULL Associated Press PADRES RELIEVER Jason Adam grimaces after he suffered a ruptured tendon in his left quadriceps during San Diego's 4-3 loss to the Orioles on Monday. "I felt the pop right away," he says.

Adam was injured in the seventh inning of a 4-3 loss to the Baltimore Orioles. One of several All-Star relievers on the team, Adam said he still needs to get an MRI scan for confirmation “but that sounds like six to nine months, so the season’s probably done.”

The injury comes as the Padres are chasing the first-place Dodgers in the NL West. The loss dropped the Padres 2½ games behind the idle Dodgers. San Diego currently holds the second NL wildcard spot. The Padres became the first big league team to send three relievers to the All-Star Game when Adam, closer Robert Suarez and left-hander Adrian Morején were selected for the Midsummer Classic.

Among general manager A.J. Preller’s several trade-deadline pickups was hard-throwing Mason Miller from the Athletics, who was an All-Star in 2024.
