TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) -Jon Garland is trying out new pitches this spring, which means one rocky outing won't bother him.

The Diamondbacks right-hander, working on developing a cutter and a curveball, was rocked for six runs and six hits in a 16-3 loss to the San Diego Padres on Monday.

``He is trying to develop more of a repertoire as opposed to mostly fastballs and sliders,' Arizona manager Bob Melvin said. ``He does throw some changeups, but adding a cutter and a curveball gives him more weapons.'

They still need some work. Garland yielded a three-run homer to Eliezer Alfonzo and three doubles in 2 1-3 innings.

``I was just throwing a lot of fastballs and a lot of cutters, doing a lot that I wouldn't be doing during the season, (with) certain counts on certain pitches,' Garland said.

Alfonzo finished with four RBIs and Kevin Kouzmanoff went 3-for-4 with three doubles for San Diego.

While Garland struggled, Cha Seung Baek turned in a solid outing for the Padres. He allowed one run and one hit in three innings.

``It is early in the spring but I'm really trying to work more on my off-speed stuff,' Baek said. ``I probably pitched about 50 percent.'

Miguel Montero hit a two-run homer for Arizona, and Mark Reynolds finished with two hits.

Notes: Arizona LHP Doug Davis played catch for 10 minutes to test out his arm after he was scratched Sunday with sore triceps. ``I let loose a little bit,' he said. ``Obviously, I didn't spin anything off, just fastballs, playing catch. I'll see how I react tomorrow. If everything's good, I'll play catch and possibly throw a bullpen either Wednesday or Thursday.'
