The Padres designated infielder\/outfielder Tyler Wade<\/a> for assignment and optioned reliever\u00a0Ron Marinaccio<\/a> before tonight\u2019s game. San Diego had already designated\u00a0Mart\u00edn Maldonado<\/a> and\u00a0Trenton Brooks<\/a> for assignment last night. Wade was the final roster casualty to accommodate newcomers Freddy Fermin<\/a>,\u00a0Ram\u00f3n Laureano<\/a> and\u00a0Ryan O\u2019Hearn<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This is the second DFA of the season for Wade. He didn\u2019t make the team out of Spring Training and was outrighted off the roster. Wade accepted a minor league assignment and was called back up a couple weeks into the season. He tallied 127 plate appearances over 60 games, hitting .206\/.309\/.252 without a home run. It\u2019s very similar to last year\u2019s .217\/.285\/.239 showing. Wade runs well and is a versatile defender but provides virtually nothing at the plate.<\/p>\n

San Diego will place Wade back on waivers in the next couple days. There\u2019s a decent chance he\u2019ll clear, at which point he\u2019d again have the right to elect free agency. He bypassed that last time around but may feel his path back to a roster spot with the Padres is more cluttered.<\/p>\n

Getting Laureano and O\u2019Hearn pushed Sheets into a backup role. Jose Iglesias<\/a> remains ahead of Wade as the utility infielder. Today\u2019s decision essentially came down to Wade or switch-hitting fourth outfielder\u00a0Bryce Johnson<\/a>, who is also out of options. The Padres stuck with Johnson, who is hitting .333 in 30 games.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Padres designated infielder\/outfielder Tyler Wade for assignment and optioned reliever\u00a0Ron Marinaccio before tonight\u2019s game.
