The San Diego Padres agreed to a one-year deals with right-handers German Marquez and Griffin Canning pending physicals, according to multiple reports on Saturday.

Marquez has played all 10 of his MLB seasons for the Colorado Rockies. He owns a career record of 68-72 with a 4.67 ERA and 1.334 WHIP.

He earned his sole All-Star selection in 2021, in which he posted a 4.40 ERA, 1.272 WHIP, 176 strikeouts and a league-leading three complete games across 32 starts.

Marquez, who turns 31 on Feb. 22, starting just five games from 2023 to 2024 due to Tommy John surgery. He is looking to bounce back from an underwhelming 2025 campaign. Across 26 games, he went 3-16 with a 6.70 ERA, 1.710 WHIP, 48 walks and 83 strikeouts in 126 1/3 innings pitched.

The metrics were concerning, as well. He ranked in the bottom five percentile in pitching run value (-42), fastball run value (-29), breaking run value (-11), xERA (5.81), xBA (.287) and strikeout percentage (14.0).

Pitching at Coors Field is a well-known challenge, and Marquez’s away splits are slightly better. For his career, he has a 5.17 ERA at home and a 4.22 ERA on the road.

Canning, 29, was 7-3 last season with a 3.77 ERA, 35 walks and 70 strikeouts over 76 1/3 innings in 16 starts for the New York Mets. He ruptured his left Achilles tendon in June to end a solid start to his lone campaign with the Mets, who had signed him as a free agent.

He has a career mark of 32-37 with a 4.65 ERA, 218 walks and 553 strikeouts in 584 1/3 innings over 115 regular-season games (110 starts) for the Los Angeles Angels (2019-21, 2023-24) and Mets. Canning missed the 2022 season due to a back injury.

The Angels selected Canning in the second round of the 2017 MLB Draft out of UCLA. He earned the Gold Glove for American League pitchers in 2020.

Ben Shelton rallied past Canada’s Denis Shapavalov for a 4-6, 6-4, 7-6 (4) victory on Saturday to set up an all-American final of the Nexo Dallas Open against Taylor Fritz.

The second-seeded Shelton faced 11 break points but saved 10 of them, including all seven over the final two sets. He had eight aces to four double faults, breaking open a deciding tiebreaker with three straight points in a 3-3 deadlock to inch to the brink of victory.

Fritz won in straight sets but needed a pair of tiebreakers to do so, defeating Marin Cilic of Croatia 7-6 (5), 7-6 (3). It was an impressive statistical performance for the top seed, with 22 aces, no double faults and over twice as many winners (35) as unforced errors (17).

ABN Amro Open

Like in Dallas, the top two seeds of the Rotterdam, Netherlands, tournament will face off in the final after No. 1 Alex de Minaur of Australia and No. 2 Felix Auger Aliassime of Canada each won in straight sets.

de Minaur beat France’s Ugo Humbert 6-4, 6-3, saving all 10 break points he faced while converting three of the four he had on Humbert’s serve. The top seed had just four winners and 23 unforced errors.

Auger Aliassime beat No. 3 seed Alexander Bublik of Kazakhstan 6-1, 6-2 in 54 minutes. He faced no break points in the convincing victory, winning 27 of his 28 (96.4%) first-service points with 25 winners and 12 unforced errors.

IEB+ Argentina Open

Top-seeded Francisco Cerundolo defeated No. 7 seed Tomas Martin Etcheverry 6-3, 7-5 in a semifinal battle of Argentine competitors in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Cerundolo won 83.3% of his first-service points and faced just one break point. Etcheverry had nearly twice as many unforced errors (26) as winners (14), winning just 26.9% of his return points.

In the other semifinal, No. 2 seed Luciano Darderi of Italy defeated Argentinian No. 4 seed Sebastian Baez 7-6 (2), 6-1 to prevent a final between home-country competitors. After a first set with no breaks, Darderi won the final six games of the second set to clinch the victory, winning 12 of 13 service points (92.3%) and 15 of 26 return points (57.7%).
