ReplyDeleteon padres.com they have reached a preliminary agreement. who knows, we will find out tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteI think the Brewers were going to get him but the Padres swooped in and offered him the sweet deal of playing every day. I am not that impressed, Mark Loretta or Adam Kennedy would have been better choices to play everyday.
