Padres claim Virgil Vasquez off waivers
Vasquez is a righty who spent most of last season in Triple-A. Vasquez
produced decent strikeout rates and is a control pitcher, walking less than
2.10 per nine, but yields too many homeruns. In 16.6 innings for the Tigers
Vasquez allowed seven homeruns. As someone who sits in the low 90’s yet
still uses his fastball more than half of the time, Vasquez is prone to
leaving pitches over the plate and promptly watching them fly into the
stands. Naturally, that makes him a fit for Petco Park.
Vasquez will join a congregation of fringe starter/reliever types in San
Diego next season as the Padres attempt to gather as many lottery tickets as
possible.
