Padres GM Hoyer says Kyle Blanks to have Tommy John Surgery
XX Sports Radio: Jed Hoyer Interview (MP3) with Darren Smith
- Hoyer gathers his staff 5 times a day to see where they are at with prospective trades. The hardest thing is being patient. The second hardest thing is that you end up chasing a lot of dead ends.
- Hoyer reads the internet. He reads MLB Trade Rumors and Rotoworld. He says there are many false rumors on the internet so you have to filter them.
- Jed says that he's trying to make the Padres better and not trying to react to moves that other teams are making.
- Hoyer says the team doesn't have to make a move before Saturday's deadline, but he thinks they will.
- Hoyer runs a lot of moves past Buddy Black to see how he thinks it will affect team chemistry. "I think our chemistry has been clearly one of our biggest strengths this year." "At the same time, you can't be afraid of making moves because of chemistry." Players will come to Hoyer with deals that they think up but they don't usually ask the players for their opinions on moves.
- Teams have made offers to the Padres but so far they've been turned down.
- The Dan Haren trade didn't surprise Jed. The Diamondbacks were looking to drop some salary. No websites had rumors of the Angels taking Haren, he applauds both teams for keeping it quiet.
- No comment on the Jayson Werth deal.
- Hoyer was disappointed in the Dodger game last night. It was the best that Jon Garland threw all year. They had a golden opportunity to score. "The bottom line is that we have to find a way to beat the Dodgers and the Rockies. If there is any negative of this season it's the performance against those two teams." It's frustrating because those are two teams we need to beat.
- Larry Lucchino was walking around the ballpark last night acting like a proud father. He wanted to come see his ballpark. Hoyer says he deserves to be proud of it.
- David Eckstein is feeling good. Good news on the MRI. He's very close to being back. Eckstein is optimistic.
- Chris Young is progressing. He threw 120 feet two days in a row. It's been a frustrating season for Young.
- Kyle Blanks is going to have Tommy John surgery on Friday. Should be back by Spring Training. The Padres pushed it off as much as they could. The doctors thought they could get him healed without surgery but have now given up. It's a lost season for Blanks and frustrating for him.
- Chris Denorfia has really stepped up to score runs. He too had Tommy John surgery and it's nice to see him bounce back.
- There were 6 different people in Hoyer's suite discussing Buddy Black's decision to leave Garland in to face Andre Ethier. " As much as people are talking about that move, the story of the game last night was not scoring."
- Padres are more likely to add a bat before the deadline. They can pick up a pitcher in August.

If Blanks has TJ surgery do you think he'll be ready in time for ST?
Also, if he’s put on the 60 day DL, does that open up a spot on the 40 man roster?
TBD
8-10 months of recovery time from TJ (so, no)
And they will definitely put Blanks on the 60 day DL and open up a spot on the 40 man roster.
No, I don't think you're an idiot. Please don't go trying to prove me wrong about that.
Bolts from the Blue - General Manager: It is what it isn't
Do you think Antonelli will take that spot?
He’s on his way back, but who knows how long until he’s playing full games consistently.

This is gibberish
Erase these posts. Antonelli has barely proven he can hit, let alone hit enough to play 1B.
No, I don't think you're an idiot. Please don't go trying to prove me wrong about that.
Bolts from the Blue - General Manager: It is what it isn't
But spring training was on the positive side for his hitting, if I remember correctly.

Not good enough for 1B
Not even close.
No, I don't think you're an idiot. Please don't go trying to prove me wrong about that.
Bolts from the Blue - General Manager: It is what it isn't
Let's play devil's advocate for a minute
and fast forward to Spring Training 2011 with:
- Kyle Blanks still rehabbing from Tommy John Surgery
- Matt Antonelli still hasn’t fully proven that he can hit.
- Adrian is traded to Beantown
Who’s going to be our first basemen? Oscar Salazar?

If we were given the right deal, be it from the Braves or whoever in the N.L.
I would be on-board for it.
But it would suck if he was still in the N.L., would it not?

Sure, I'd prefer to trade him to the AL...
but I wouldn’t leave a better deal on the table to do it. Maybe I’d take slightly less of a deal to move him out of the division. But not to move him out of the league.

Yes
I expect us to completely ignore the position during free agency and the Adrian Gonzalez trade (and any other trades) and go into the season with Oscar Salazar or, worse, Matt Antonelli at 1B.
No, I don't think you're an idiot. Please don't go trying to prove me wrong about that.

I could try and predict who we sign in free agency or get in return for Adrian from 1 of the 29 other teams in the league. I think this might prove difficult to figure out though.

Hmm, didn't think about that
That’s unfortunate that he’s returning because we could use that spot on someone that could help the big league team. Maybe they can keep him there and he can just play out the remainder in Peoria?
No, I don't think you're an idiot. Please don't go trying to prove me wrong about that.

/kind of kidding
He could be a few weeks from actually returning though, so we could put someone there until then, maybe?
"You're like the nicest internet person I know." - theodore donald kerabatsos
Actually
I’m being stupid. I think he can stay on the DL and play in the minors as rehab. I’m not sure what the timeline is for rehab assignments off the 60 day DL. There’s only a little over a month left in the season anyway.
No, I don't think you're an idiot. Please don't go trying to prove me wrong about that.

If he gets TJ surgery
should we expect him to start writing moronic columns about how disgraceful we are?

So Blanks is done for the year
Along with CY (I doubt he’ll be back for the final push of the season).
I can live with picking up a bat now and getting an arm through waivers…as long as the bat isn’t Miguel Tejada.

Many teams with prospects to deal would need to include a 1B prospect to provide enough return value. With the Padres ready to move Blanks there it limited their options.

I'm all for using the stats as one measuring tool, but when used
religiously to say Chris Ianetta is a better player than Yorvit Torrealbe because he has a better OPS+, then you lose me
I never said anything about Ianetta or Torrealba.
Also, OPS+ is a junk stat. Not very sound. wRC+ is better. And WAR is pretty good too, but defensive value (even more so for catchers) is not an exact science.

Dunn
Despite his terrible corner OF defense, I would bring Adam Dunn in here at even a stiff price (Frieri,Luebke, and fringe prospect) . Am I so wrong ? If so, turn me in the right direction.
Sooooo Stoked
I'd take his O and sacrifice his D. It's not like he'd be playing SS
and give up the prospects
Looking at Dunn's offensive numbers
over his decade of play, seems like he is a little underrated – averages 33 HR 94 rbi’s per season (albeit in hitters parks) – of course. strikes out a ton but walks a lot. Still fairly young too. We could probably sign him at a decent price considering he is upper echelon.
Sooooo Stoked
I've always been muffintop Dunn fan.

maybe, yes
seems like DeJesus was that guy but that’s gone now. Podsednik would bring no great impact – he is a filler who was almost out of the game 1.5 years ago.
Sooooo Stoked
so who are we left with?
Jeff Keppinger. That’s not going to excite anyone.

Pads management has conditioned you well to believe a trade has to be both good
for the immediate future and for the long-term. I say the front office needs to show they’re committed to winning now and not just pick up someone that comes cheap like a Keppinger, so that they can appear like they’re trying to improve the team.
