Padres acquire Vinny Castilla from Nationals

[Careless]

And what do the Pads do with Burroughs?

 

Burroughs was horrible last year (250/318/299) - our favorite whipping boy Neifi had him by 85 ops points.

63 points, btw

I knew Burroughs was bad, but I always thought they were sticking with him waiting for that "breakout" season. But yeaeh, a 617 OPS from your 3rd baseman :shock: ? Yikes.

No, San Diego gave up on Burroughs already. They signed Joe Randa to play 3rd this past year.

Yes, you are correct. Randa was traded. But, the original point is still accurate. The Padres have already given up on Burroughs.

hahahahaha.

 

But really, they might have been clearing up a spot for Wells. I just don't understand trading a guy like Lawrence for Castilla. hahaha
