Mariners Claim Josh Wilson, DFA Quiroz
For the second time today, a Padre has been claimed off waivers. This time, it's Josh Wilson going to the Mariners, according to Ryan Divish of the Tacoma News Tribune. The Mariners also designated catcher Guillermo Quiroz for assignment.
Wilson, a 28-year-old utility man, has already played for the Padres and D'Backs this year, spending most of his time on the left side of the infield. He actually pitched for both clubs, too and it wasn't his first time on a big league mound; his pitching debut came with Tampa Bay in 2007. At the plate, Wilson's only hitting .156 this year, with an OPS below .500.
Quiroz, a 27-year-old catcher, appeared in just four games for the Mariners after a promotion from Triple A.

Guillermo Quiroz was promoted from double-A not triple-A.

Looks like Everth Cabrera is getting activated from the DL with Wilson out.
I'm getting a little anxious to see who's being sent down for Kyle Blanks' promotion. Will Venable seems like the likely choice but I'd be a pretty damn happy Padres fan if Floyd or Giles were cut...

With CY and Peavy out, this is the Padres shutting it down for the year. Any outside shot we had at the postseason is gone, so they're letting vets go, clearing space, and bringing up guys like Blanks for a tryout. Time to start counting down to Chargers football San Diego...

Floyd 60 day DL, Hundley 15 day DL retro active June 12th, Young to DL. Cabrera actativated from DL. Busy day for the Padres.
SDPads4life: You say that as if it wasnt already known. I dont know a Padres fan that came into the season expecting to win and compete. We were all hoping to see the team make progress, but also make moves for the future. My hope is that this is the beginning of that. Let the young guys play, see what we've got, give them the rest of the season to take their lumps. Its basically what we were going to do either way, and the quicker it happened the more playing time they will get. I hope anyways.
