Padres Designate Eulogio De La Cruz

By Tim Dierkes [April 27 at 4:35pm CST] According to MLB.com's Jesse Sanchez, the Padres designated pitcher Eulogio De La Cruz for assignment today to make room on the roster for Chad Gaudin. The Padres had acquired De La Cruz from the Marlins a month ago for a player to be named later or cash. Paul DePodesta had a glowing review at that time.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also, brownie points if you know what movie I was referencing.

 

We should sign him, if for no other reason than to saw mwahahahaha we got a PTBNL/cash for San Diego and still didn't lose a player. Beinfest strikes again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! mawahahaha

 

MLBTR, by the way.

if we do sign him and it doesn't work out can we send him down to the minors or will he be a free agent.

I think he has to stay on the 40-man for the year, no?

 

Still might not be a bad idea if Penn starts struggling to make him the spot starter/long relief guy.

No, that's only Rule 5 guys.

why do ppl want him so badly.

we traded him for a reason. why should we resign him.

two teams thought he wasnt major league material.

He's not going to improve this bullpen. We need more drastic measures.

Not the answer.

Lots of walks, high "upside"...
