However, neither the Red Sox nor Padres have made an official announcement nor has any compensation for Wells been discussed.
The Padres in September (and October 1) will play:
3 vs. Cincinnati
3 vs. Colorado
3 at San Francisco
3 at Cincinnati
4 at Los Angeles
3 vs. Arizona
3 vs. Pittsburgh
3 at St. Louis
4 at Arizona
According to the ESPN.com transactions page, Wells was designated for assignment and Lenny DiNardo was called up. No announcement yet that he is officially bound for the large city south of Orange County and north of the Mexican border.
Geography Alert - From the Sports Ticker story comes this, "A native of Torrance, California, Wells should feel right at home in nearby San Diego...." Perhaps they forgot that David Wells actually grew up in San Diego and went to the same high school (Point Loma) as Don Larsen.
i'm hearing the Vegas game at the moment, i hope the Dodgers have a spot for my boy Oscar Robles (fellow Mexican) he can play 3rd, SS, & 2nd his bat is nice & takes alot of pitches.
