Padres Acquire Luis Perdomo From Rockies

By Steve Adams | December 10, 2015 at 11:31am CDT

The Padres announced that they have acquired right-hander Luis Perdomo from the Rockies in exchange for cash considerations of a player to be named later. Colorado took Perdomo with the fourth pick in today’s Rule 5 Draft.

The 22-year-old Perdomo, not to be confused with the journeyman right-hander of the same name, split this past season across the Cardinals’ Class-A affiliates in the Midwest League and Florida State League. Perdomo posted a combined 3.98 ERA with 8.4 K/9 against 2.6 BB/9 while working almost exclusively out of the rotation. (He did make one relief appearance.)

Baseball America’s J.J. Cooper recently wrote that Perdomo sits 93-95 mph with his fastball and features a tight slider. While he’s yet to appear above Class-A Advanced, Cooper noted that a club could select Perdomo with the hopes that he could thrive in a bullpen role by focusing only on those two pitches. MLB.com’s Corey Brock, however, tweets that GM A.J. Preller says Perdomo will come to Spring Training as a starter and possibly moved to the bullpen if necessary. MLB.com’s Jim Callis called Perdomo’s slider a plus pitch and offered a similar take on his velocity in his own preview.

By acquiring Perdomo, the Padres have added their fourth player from today’s Rule 5 pick. San Diego made two picks of its own — right-handers Josh Martin and Blake Smith — and also acquired outfielder Jabari Blash from the Athletics. All four players will have to be carried on the active roster, lest they be exposed to waivers and, if they clear, offered back to their original organization for $50K.

    The Padres went from huge splash last offseason to four Rule 5 picks on their 25-man roster. What a disparity.

    I wonder who will make the team all season out of the 4? It’s a drain and a struggle to have just one rule V guy on the team all year, I’d bet these guys all go back to their original team.

    One actual question though: does Blash go back to Oakland or Seattle if SD doesn’t keep him?

      He gets waived. If he clears waivers, he gets offered back to original team- Oakland.

        Seattle was the original team and that is where he will go if he goes unclaimed through waivers.

          Whoooops my bad, can’t read. But yeah original team.

          I read this online on another site:

          “If Blash is waived, the A’s can claim him on Rule 5 terms in order of waiver priority (this is how the A’s obtained Nate Freiman in 2013), but he ultimately would be offered back to the Mariners if he cleared waivers.”

          So, yall are right…if I could upvote yall’s replies, I would!

    i think its a cheap way to catch lightning in a bottle so to speak. Some teams didn’t want to get rid of the players in the 1st place…if the Padres release them..50K is nothing to take your player back.

    Is there an award for most trades made? Seems like Padres just make deals to make deals

    Has a team ever made that many Rule V picks in 1 year? I’d guess the pitchers have best shot of making it out of anyone.
