The San Diego Padres placed right-hander Mike Clevinger and left-hander Adrian Morejon on the COVID-19 injured list Saturday.

The Padres recalled left-hander Ray Kerr and right-hander Reiss Knehr from Triple-A El Paso. Also, the team recalled outfielder Brent Rooker from the Triple-A club as the 27th man for Saturday’s doubleheader against the visiting Colorado Rockies.

Clevinger, who was scratched from his scheduled start in the first game on Saturday, is 1-0 with a 3.18 ERA in four starts this season. The 31-year-old owns a 45-23 record with a 3.19 ERA in 109 career appearances (96 starts) with the Cleveland franchise (2016-20) and San Diego.

Morejon, 23, didn’t allow a hit in two scoreless innings of relief in his lone appearance in 2022 with the Padres.

Kerr, 27, is 2-0 with a 4.50 ERA in 16 relief appearances this season with El Paso.

Knehr, 25, owns a 3-4 record with a 7.84 ERA in 12 appearances (10 starts) in 2022 with the Chihuahuas.

Rooker, 27, is batting .236 with nine homers and 24 RBIs in 29 games this season with El Paso.
