Moebarguy
Didn’t we already have this guy?
davidwright1234
no we didn’t have this guy. He was with the Phillies two years before and then the Nationals organization last year.
Moebarguy
…check his 2006 season in the minors.
Infield Fly
No, that was Juan Padilla – resident clubhouse good guy, entertainer, and magician a few years ago. He couldn’t overcome his arm woes so Mets released him. I think he’s coaching now.
Moebarguy
Nope, I’m right. He was on our Double-A squad in 2006.

I immediately thought of Juan Padilla, too.
Rob Piersall
ur thinking of RHP Juan Padilla who pitched for us in 2005
Moebarguy
Ugh, I wish I never even posted that…for the third time, we had him in 2006 (double-A)
rom718
Yeah “Moebarguy is right. We did have him for one year.
davidwright1234
im sorry… ur rite. everyone moebarguy is rite, we did hav this guy in 2006

Padilla reaching the Majors last year was one of my favorite stories from 2009. Hopefully he can hit his way back onto a ML roster.
Ryan Bell
maybe the mets traded maine for him
Roll Fizzlebeef
Now that’s an interesting theory. Probably not the likely outcome, but if AA could work some smoke and mirrors and pull it off, it’d be rather impressed. Also, imagine if Bruce Walton could work his own brand of magic on Maine and get him back in order.
Chad Brown
Hey that Walton type of magic seems to be working on Brandon Morrow. Had a tough start, but is really coming around. Thanks to Walton’s corrections.

Sounds like the guy the Mets should really be trading for is Bruce Walton.
