Finally, the Brett Wallace era is over.

I could see Wallace resigning with the Padres, he seemed to have a nice role there

Why was Michael Kelly not protected instead of Quakenbush or Norris? Kelly has upside the other two have none. Answer me Preller!

There are guys below Quack and Norris on the depth chart *cough* Amarista *cough*

The Padres’ obsession with rostering Amarista is bordering on pathological. The guy has basically no value except he can stand around at a bunch of positions.

But he’s the little ninja!! Every team needs a .240 hitter with below avg defense at 8positions on there roster!
SixFlagsMagicPadres
Yeah he’s a total quad-A player who has somehow managed to stay on the roster over the years.
At this point, the only entertainment he brings is when they put him on the mound for an inning during huge blowouts.
YourDaddy
The comical value of a 5’4″ guy on the mound is almost worth it on a team that is going to lose 90+ games, but its not worth losing a guy like Kelly that might actually be a decent back of the rotation starter..

Arcia is the next Bautista

Wallace was 1st round pick? Another Padre special

Drafted by the Cardinals
davidcoonce74
Yeah. There was some thought he could be a bat-first third baseman. He was very good in college. But he is just a slow guy with a thick midsection; he was a disaster at third and the bat just doesn’t play at first. He’s a total Quad-A player.
Steve Adams
He was a first-round pick by the Cardinals. Traded to Oakland for Matt Holliday. Traded to Toronto for Michael Taylor. Traded to Houston for Anthony Gose. Finally released by Houston, and then the minor league deal carousel began.
Ironically Optimistic Padres Fan
Wallace didn’t hit much, but when he did I saw him MASH.
