Padres Outright Brett Kennedy

By Jeff Todd | October 31, 2019 at 7:39am CDT

The Padres have outrighted righty Brett Kennedy, per the Pacific Coast League transactions page. That’ll clear another 40-man spot for the Friars to utilize in the coming months.

Now 25, Kennedy debuted in 2018 after a promising run through the San Diego farm system. He struggled in his initial MLB showing but seemingly had a good shot at a second chance and a useful big-league career.

That all may still come to pass, but Kennedy will first need to get back to health. He was sidelined early with lat/shoulder issues and ended up on the 60-day injured list. Kennedy attempted a rehab stint but made just one appearance.

Rather than adding Kennedy back to the 40-man, the Pads elected to run him through waivers. The club will still control the rights to the Fordham product.

    He’s the first of about 15 people to get outrighted, released or traded in the next few days.

      Im just happy Joe Bucks affair with Juan Soto is finally over. Pretty sure he said “and this kid is only 21” about 46 times over the course of 7 games.

      Otherwise, congrats Nats for a terrific playoff run! That homer from Kendrick was unreal as well. Wasnt that bad of a pitch but took advantage of the high school dimensions that are Minute Maid Park.

      Most people dont like the antics the Nats do in the dugout, but i have zero issue with it. They’re kids playing a game and its fun to watch so all the people complaining need to get over it.

        Hey, watch out now. Our high school field is deeper to right. Now the field my 13 year old played on is about that distance. Same can be said for Yankee stadium

    Glad he passed through waivers. When he’s healthy he can be a solid depth piece in AAA.
