PrintAccording to MLB.com, on Friday, the Pads released Jim Edmunds. An excerpt is below:
"It's just not happening for him statistically," Padres manager Bud Black said Thursday before a 5-4 loss to the Braves ended a 2-7 road trip, leaving the reeling Padres with a 12-23 record and in last place in the National League West.
Edmonds, 37, was hitting just .178 with 24 strikeouts in 90 at-bats. He had just six hits in his last 55 at-bats. He wasn't in the starting lineup on Thursday in Atlanta, but appeared in the game as part of a double-switch, grounding out in his only at-bat.

I'd actually
Love to see us pick him up. We could really use his veteran leadership and vaughnted clubhouse charisma. How’s a reasonable 2-year deal sound?

like...
The Steve Finley deal…
Love the sarcasm, but wouldn’t it have been great if the Halos had traded Ersty instead of Edmonds? Boy that would have been fun – and probably more productive.
Yea, but
I would honestly love to see Ersty back. He could bench coach and teach the proper way to stuff a half of can of Copenhagen into your lower lip.
Mazal Tov baby! From my family to yours!!

Do the Pads need a CF?
Maybe GMJ will waive his NTC to go to SD.

Oh Lord, one could only hope.
I would rank that potential acquisition to the Grizzlies taking/absorbing Kwame Brown.

But who is our Pau Gasol in that analogy?
