The San Diego Padres have placed Eric Hosmer on the family medical leave list.

They hope to have Hosmer back on Friday, according to Andy Green.

"He had some things he needed to go home and take care of," Green said. "Respecting his privacy and his family's wishes. We'll just kind of leave it at that right now."

In his first season with the club, Hosmer is hitting .259/.364/.412 with a pair of home runs in 22 games.
