Scott Miller Good luck to Padres trading Orlando Hudson. Secret is out. All talk, no leader. Pads tired of him by last July.

Orlando Hudson has gotten a bad reputation this year, both with fans and with the team. When he wasn't mixing it up with fans on Twitter, he was making bad plays in the field and not providing any veteran leadership in the clubhouse.
Bill Center reported a couple of days ago that the Padres are trying to trade either Jason Bartlett or Orlando Hudson before the beginning of next season. He suspects the team will have an easier time getting rid of Barlett.

Someone has to be desprate.
Or we should just waive him, see if someone will pick him up for free, along with his contract. Maybe we can get some minor league filler? Maybe we can give him to the Cubs as compensation for Jed?
Padres Fan.
If we waive him wouldn't we be responsible for all of his contract
except the major league minimum for a vet at his level? I thought that’s what kept teams from just dumping players.
TBD

He would if he passed through the waivers, but I think
If he was claimed, the claiming team would be responsible for full contract, but we would not get player compensation.
Generally team let the guy go through the waivers, and sign him at league minimum later… unlessssss someone is desperate enough… someone… PLEASE!
Padres Fan.
Yeah the claiming team would pay the contract
Like the White Sox claiming Rios a couple years ago. That Blue Jays GM did a great job getting rid of seemingly immovable contracts for them.

Yes, but this is unlikely to happen before...
let’s say July/August of next year.
Granted, if we put Maybin on waivers, he would get claimed, and we would retract the waiver.
But everyone knows Hudson has issues… so, I doubt there would be any waiver claims. If a club was interested, they would probably say, “hey, we’ll take him, and $4 million” or something.
Yeah, during the post-trade deadline revokable waivers.
At this point we just need to get him of the roster.
Padres Fan.
hudson wasn't gonna bring back a whole lot anyway
i think people know about his baggage to begin with. we were basically looking for a low-level minor leaguer and assuming the padres would eat some of his salary.
The return would be
Not having to pay him.

What you thought he'd vote for anyone from your sorry team?
Enjoy the bankruptcy court, it’s the only excitement the Dodgers will provide you this year.
yes and san diego has a lot to look forward to huh/....
not only in baseball… but football to when the chargers leave your sorry city
Hmm...
You should have done your research before opening your mouth. There is reason to believe he doesn’t even live in San Diego nor is he even a Chargers fan. Know where you could have seen that? His profile page.
Bro.

I do live in SD
But your point about the Chargers is spot on. I don’t give a rats ass about them. Go Pats!
Not really any surprises there

Yep.
That’s exactly what I said. Join every blog he comments on and rec anything he says.

Thanks Moorad for bringing your buddy on
especially by giving him a two year deal when he had had nothing but 1 yr contracts for five years. I hope you got your agent’s cut

Looks like the padres are actually in on Furcal
to the tune of 2 years, $15m, with an option that’s pretty much in line with what he’s been offered elsewhere. looks like the writing is on the wall for jed’s double play combo.
websoulsurfet alert
Not a legitimate rumor. My sources say we’re in on Pujols.
Oh internet, what a wicked web you weave.

we will need them both once the DH comes

Sadly isn't coming either
He’s more likely to end up on a beach in Miami drinking pina coladas with LeBron than come here.

a lot of people were discussing
furcal moving to second base. obviously he has more intrinsic value at SS, but he may be a plus fielder at 2B instead of a middling one at SS. plus i’m sure we’d all rather keep bartlett than hudson.

I like that idea

although it broke our hearts it did not break our will the herd
Odog is the Anti-Eckstein
Maybe they should just put them in the same room and see if good wins out over evil.

This would surely result in
Eckstein and Odog commencing in a spirited tickle fight and butt-slapping aplenty.

Do you imagine a scenario where we could, say, sell Hudson to a Japanese team?
