Current San Diego Padres domestic minor league affiliate locations

The San Diego Padres are an American professional baseball team based in San Diego. The Padres compete in Major League Baseball (MLB) as a member club of the National League (NL) West Division. The team's farm system consists of seven Minor League Baseball affiliates across the United States and in the Dominican Republic. Four affiliates are independently owned, while three—the Arizona Complex League Padres and two Dominican Summer League Padres squads—are owned by the major league club.

The Padres have been affiliated with the High-A Fort Wayne TinCaps of the Midwest League since 1999, making it the longest-running affiliation in the organization among teams not owned by the Padres. Their newest affiliate is the San Antonio Missions of the Texas League, which became the Padres' Double-A club in 2021.

Geographically, San Diego's closest domestic affiliate is the Single-A Lake Elsinore Storm of the California League, which is approximately 66 miles (106 km) away. San Diego's furthest domestic affiliate is the Fort Wayne TinCaps some 1,849 miles (2,976 km) away.

1969–1989

[edit]

Prior to the 1963 season, Major League Baseball (MLB) initiated a reorganization of Minor League Baseball that resulted in a reduction from six classes to four (Triple-A, Double-A, Class A, and Rookie) in response to the general decline of the minors throughout the 1950s and early-1960s when leagues and teams folded due to shrinking attendance caused by baseball fans' preference for staying at home to watch MLB games on television. The only change made within the next 27 years was Class A being subdivided for the first time to form Class A Short Season in 1966.[2]

2021–present

[edit]

The current structure of Minor League Baseball is the result of an overall contraction of the system beginning with the 2021 season. Class A was reduced to two levels: High-A and Low-A.[65] Low-A was reclassified as Single-A in 2022.[66]
