Padres acquire their players from the Maddux deal

From SPI:

The San Diego Padres acquired minor league pitchers Michael Watt and Eduardo Perez from the Dodgers Tuesday to complete the August 19 trade that sent veteran Greg Maddux to Los Angeles.

DePodesta has more about both guys:

We're excited about adding these pitchers into the mix (Watt was actually scheduled to pitch against our Instructional League team today). Not only are these two interesting arms, but also they really complement our draft from this year. As many of you know, we targeted hitters in the early rounds of the 2008 draft, but with the trades that we made (Clark, Wolf, and Maddux), we've been able to add four young arms (two of whom are high school age) into the system - Scribner, Reineke, Perez, and Watt. That doesn't even include our international signings.

We're going to be awesome. Very, very soon.

Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you?

More Mediocre Pitching

YAY!

People the world over have always been more impressed by the power of our example than by the example of our power.

In 2012

Will we in turn be looking forward to the 2015 Padres?

subquestion: Do we need to enlist Doctor Emmett Brown for this mission?
