Padres Get Schiraldi From Cubs
Suddenly finding themselves on the fringe of a pennant race, the San Diego Padres made a four-player trade with the Chicago Cubs Wednesday to bolster their pitching staff.
The Padres acquired pitcher Calvin Schiraldi, outfielder Darrin Jackson and a player to be named from the Cubs’ 40-man roster in exchange for outfielder Marvell Wynne and infielder Luis Salazar.
By making the move before midnight tonight, the Padres will be able to include the new players on their playoff roster.
The Padres also brought up infielder Joey Cora of their triple-A Las Vegas team.
