Bethancourt’s outfield debut delayed

The debut of Christian Bethancourt, outfielder, has been placed on a temporary hold. Before Friday’s game against the Dodgers, the Padres initially announced a lineup with Bethancourt starting in right field — giving Matt Kemp a breather. It would have been Bethancourt’s first game at a position other than catcher at any professional level. (He signed with Atlanta at age 16.)
