Padres Complete Venable Trade, Designate Chris Rearick

By Jeff Todd | August 21, 2015 at 2:16pm CDT

The Padres have officially added righty Jon Edwards from the Rangers to complete the recent trade that sent Will Venable to Texas, the club announced. Edwards had needed to clear revocable waivers before he could be sent as the player to be named later.

San Diego designated Chris Rearick for assignment to clear a 40-man spot. The 27-year-old southpaw was knocked around in his first three big league innings this year, and struggled to a 5.11 ERA (with thirty strikeouts and thirty walks) over 44 Triple-A frames. Rearick has been much more successful in the minors in past seasons, and has never shown those kinds of control issues previously.

    All in all, not a bad move for the Padres. Wouldn’t be terribly surprised to see Will resigned in the offseason to return as a 4th OF, though he may find a better offer to start on a rebuilding team (and potentially build more value by playing in a hitter friendly stadium).

    Still though, 6 weeks of Venable for a lottery ticket catcher with a lot of pop, and what looks like a solid middle-to-late inning reliever, seems like a decent swap. Plus, it frees up CF for Jankowski in the near term.

      Doubt we re-sign Venable. Outfield is getting crowded. Need to focus on getting a SS and more starting pitchers.
