I agree that it was probably more for rest than anything, and that's what concerns me the most about him for the second half. He's already at 106 innings on the season and has never thrown more than 122 in a full year (last season). It's a catch 22 for the Padres -- he's your top starter and you're in 1st place. You need to keep pitching him to give yourself the best chance of winning but you also want to make sure you save him for the playoffs. For fantasy owners , you should be looking at one of three outcomes: 1. his arm grows tired and he starts to falter due to overuse thus screwing your fantasy team 2. the Padres start skipping his starts, rest him longer, and save him for a playoffs thus screwing your fantasy team 3. he becomes this miraculous ball player unlike anyone we've ever seen in this era of innings limits for kids and pitches like a champ for the rest of the way. I'm not sure I like the odds here... Whether Latos’ oblique injury was real or they put him on the DL just for rest, you should still be concerned.

However, Latos is pure gold. His "injury" is nonsense. Rest. I believe you are spot on with the train wreck that will become richard. However, Latos is pure gold. His “injury” is nonsense. Rest.
