Some help for the bullpen:
Tadlock is a rookie reliever who was San Diego's closer with 21 saves, and sports 80/60/55 ratings. Speaking of ratings Lopez's remained very good although the results weren't there (7+ ERA) but the Padres think he can help their rotation. Haley and Salazar are fringe prospects that got the deal done. This deal is about the future as well as our current back-end relievers (Berumen and Flores) are free agents at season's end so Tadlock can step in as our closer next year, unless he takes the job away from those inconsistent vets even sooner.
