The Padres have claimed left-hander Eric Stults off of waivers from the White Sox, Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports tweets. The White Sox had designated the 32-year-old for assignment earlier this week.
Stults had appeared in two games for the White Sox this year, allowing two earned runs in 6 2/3 innings. He signed a minor league deal with Chicago this past offseason after spending most of the 2011 season as a reliever for the Rockies' Triple-A affiliate. Stults also appeared in six games for last year's Rockies team. He joins a Padres bullpen that includes left-handers Alex Hinshaw and Joe Thatcher.
32 yr old , no loss.
Uh oh. Former Dodger now playing for a division rival. That means trouble.
Seriously, though… I think Stults could be decent back-end starter in Petco.
You were right.
Loved Eric in Pulp Fiction, but his career pretty much disappeared after the Mask
