San Diego Padres fans oppose Ethan Salas promotion

A recent survey of San Diego Padres fans indicates that the majority do not support promoting top catching prospect Ethan Salas to the major league roster for the remainder of the 2026 season.

Salas has performed strongly with the Triple-A El Paso Chihuahuas, recording a .359 average with 23 hits in 17 games. While his offensive success and defensive improvements in pitch framing and throwing have sparked discussions regarding a potential call-up, many fans believe it is more prudent for him to finish the season at the Triple-A level.
