Padres Release Iguchi, Tomko


The Padres have continued preparing for next year, releasing both second-baseman Tadahito Iguchi and pitcher Brett Tomko.

Iguchi hit a dismal .231/.292/.304 for San Diego after having a quality season for the Philadelphia Phillies last year. Luis Rodriguez will get the rest of the playing at second-base for SD. As for Tomko, the 35-year old pitched in 9.3 innings for San Diego and put up a nice 1.90 ERA. Still, the Padres don't have a hard time finding relievers and Tomko won't be around the league too much longer.
