The Padres are set to add first baseman Ty France to the Opening Day roster, the San Diego Union-Tribune reported Saturday.
France signed a minor league deal before spring training, reuniting with the organization that drafted him in 2015 and brought him to the major leagues for the first time in 2019.
In 17 spring training games with San Diego, France was batting .318 with two home runs and 12 RBIs.
France, 31, split time with the Minnesota Twins and Toronto Blue Jays last season, batting .277 with seven home runs and 52 RBIs in 138 games.
In seven seasons with five different clubs, the Southern California native, and 2022 All-Star as a member of the Seattle Mariners, is a career .262 hitter with 81 home runs and 364 RBIs in 840 career games.
