Well, as predicted, it
did happen.
Pedro Ciriaco was traded today to the San Diego Padres for a player to be named later or cash considerations. With the activation of
Will Middlebrooks and the stellar performance of
Jose Iglesias, Ciriaco's mediocre 2013 play could no longer justify a roster spot. San Diego's rookie phenom
Jedd Gyorko has been sidelined by injury, so Ciriaco could
immediately see some playing time at second base. We wish the former "Yankee-Killer" all the best at PETCO.
