(MLB.com San Diego Padres)

The roster battles in Padres camp have taken a decidedly different tone this spring than they have in years past. There are no Rule 5 Draft selections to work around. There are few out-of-options veterans who might present logistical challenges. Instead, there`s a host of young talent in camp, and those youngsters have been given every opportunity to compete for a job.
