Padres-Yankees Swap: Spiezio for Velez
BNN has learned the San Diego Padres have reportedly worked out a deal with the New York Yankees. Sources close to the Padres indicated that a trade has been reached in principle where 19-year old minor league CF Otto Velez, 21-year old minor league 1B John Ellis, 23-year old minor league RHP Tom Buskey, 23-year old minor league 3B Rick Bladt, and 24-year old minor league RHP Dale Spier will be swapped to San Diego with 28-year old 3B Ed Spiezio and 19-year old minor league SS Gil Vidrio heading to New York. Neither organization would comment on the report, saying it was club policy not to speak about a trade until it was finalized.
For the season, Spiezio is currently batting .289 with 11 home runs and 33 RBIs. In 84 games he has reached base at a .368 rate and scored 40 runs to date.
