PEORIA, Ariz. -- Andrew Cashner was picked to start for the San Diego Padres on opening day against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Padres manager Bud Black said Cashner will pitch March 30 at Petco Park.

In his first full season as a starter, Cashner went 10-9 with a 3.09 ERA last year. The right-hander appeared in 31 games, including 26 starts. Goedkope Nike Air Max .
