I think it was a good move,since it looks like T.Buck can hold his own.

I still think we could have got something of value for him... maybe a middle reliever to take the stress of our pen? :dontknow:

Hopefully some sort of minor deal is in the works.

Glad to see that a deal was made. I wish Bradley the best of luck and to his future. I've always enjoyed watching him play, last year was wonderful, but I knew his time would come.

Cheers to his future!

Trade called off... Milton's still injured. Now we'll get nothing for him...

Bad news.

Right after I replied I was looking around for more details about the trade and found out that it didn't happen.

Padres Acquire Milton Bradley

SAN DIEGO -- The San Diego Padres agreed to acquire temperamental outfielder Milton Bradley from the Oakland Athletics on Thursday night, the second time in just more than a week that the team decided to add a player with a history of blowups.

The Padres will send Oakland a minor league pitcher, several people with knowledge of the deal said, speaking on condition of anonymity because it had yet to be announced.

Bradley could join the team during a weekend series at the Los Angeles Dodgers, one of his former teams.

General manager Kevin Towers confirmed in an e-mail Thursday that the Padres had interest in the outfielder, but declined further comment.

Manager Bud Black said he hadn't spoken with Towers on Thursday, an off day for the team, and couldn't confirm the deal. But Black said he knew the Padres had discussed Bradley the day before, and added that it was more than likely that Bradley would play left field.
