Headley should’ve signed an extension after 2012.. It was obviously a career year considering all of his other years were mediocre at best

The Padres should have tried moving him last offseason. His value was as high as it ever was. Can’t see Headley’s value ever coming close to what it was last offseason.

yep. and with gyorko in the wings they could have afforded to let him go. i imagine they just weren’t happy with the offers they received.

You have to keep some players that are good don’t you? Otherwise what’s the point of being a fan? Coming on the heels of AGon and Latos, seems to me there’d be a lot of unhappy SD campers if Headley were immediately let go after his breakout year. But the team does look smart now in seeing if he could duplicate it.

A lot of unhappy SD campers? They have an average attendance of five people in the stands!

San Diego was 20th out of 30 in attendance last year. Hardly a Florida team

I’d be ok with a trade, but don’t give him away. Worst case scenario is they let him walk next year after making him a qualifying offer. Hopefully we will compete this year and he will sign an extension. I just don’t feel good about it. It doesn’t really sound like he wants to stay in San Diego. Being a TN boy, I could see him trying to go to Atlanta or somewhere in the South/Midwest

If he has another mediocre season, he maybe would accept the qualifying offer

If he has another mediocre season, he won’t get a qualifying offer.

Red Sox should make the move. Need 3B for one year (Cecchini on way), also have prospects to trade, without giving away farm.

Other than that one year he’s not really any better than middlebrooks. Higher obp, less power.

I feel in this situation both the Padres and Headley lost. The Padres should have realized that his 2012 season was a fluke with his sky high HR/FB and traded him. Headley should have signed an extension after a platform year.
