On Saturday night in Atlanta, Yu Darvish was supposed to be on the mound with a chance to win his 200th game as a professional pitcher. He'll have to wait a while longer.

The Friars game against the Braves was postponed by rain. It will be made up as part of a split doubleheader on Monday so the rest of their 4-game series now looks like this:

Sunday 4:10 pm PT
Monday 9:20 am PT (Game 1) and 3:20 pm PT (Game 2)

San Diego did make a bit of news on Saturday, signing former Silver Slugger and Gold Glove winner David Peralta to a minor league contract. The 10-year veteran was sent to Triple-A El Paso and might serve as some outfield and DH depth in the coming weeks.
