Blair, 46, pitched for eight different teams over parts of 12 Major League seasons, including the 1995-96 seasons with the Padres. Blair spent the last two seasons with Fort Wayne, helping develop a pitching staff that included Keyvius Sampson, Adys Portillo, Matt Stites, Matt Wisler and many others who are considered top prospects in the team's Minor League system. "Willie did a terrific job for us with a young pitching staff both years," said Randy Smith, the Padres' vice president of player development and international scouting. "The reaction of the players [to him] was positive. He's got some teeth; he won't let them get away with stuff. But at the same time, he's a good confidant and sounding board." Blair replaced Jimmy Jones, who acted as the interim bullpen coach for part of last season after Darrel Akerfelds lost his battle with pancreatic cancer last June. Blair won 16 games for the Tigers in 1997 and went a combined 9-11 with a 4.46 ERA in his two seasons with the Padres. Overall, he appeared in 418 Major League games (139 starts) and had a 5.04 ERA. Earlier this month, the team offered the bullpen coach job to former Red Sox pitching coach Bob McClure. But family commitments prevented McClure from accepting the position. 2 O'Sullivan among three signed to Minors deal By Corey Brock / MLB.com | 12/12/12 3:00 PM ET The Padres signed three Minor League free agents on Thursday -- right-handed pitcher Sean O'Sullivan, infielder Gregorio Petit and catcher Rene Rivera. All three players will be invited to big league camp in February. O'Sullivan, 25, is a San Diego native who attended Valhalla High in nearby El Cajon. He was drafted by the Angels in the third round of the 2005 Draft. O'Sullivan made his Major League debut in 2009 with the Angels and has played in parts of three Major League seasons (2009-11). O'Sullivan split last season between two Triple-A teams in the Blue Jays and Royals organization. He went a combined 14-7 with a 4.23 ERA in the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League. O'Sullivan offers the Padres versatility, as he can start or pitch in relief. He throws a good changeup and has good command with a low walk rate. With pitcher Andrew Cashner to miss Opening Day after having surgery last week to repair a lacerated tendon in his right thumb, O'Sullivan could forge his way onto the roster with a strong performance in Spring Training. Rivera has spent parts of four seasons in the big leagues (2004-06, 2011) with the Mariners and Twins. The 29-year-old Rivera gives the Padres some catching depth. He spent all of the 2012 season with the Twins' Triple-A affiliate in Rochester, hitting .226 with 10 home runs and 26 RBIs. The 28-year-old Petit originally signed with San Diego as a Minor League free agent in December of 2010 but he suffered a knee injury playing winter ball shortly thereafter. He likely would have made the roster as an extra infielder in 2011 had he not been hurt. Instead, the team traded for Alberto Gonzalez during Spring Training. Petit is regarded as a good defender who can play in the middle of the infield but is best at shortstop. He appeared in 25 games with the A's in 2008-09. Petit hit .260 with 10 home runs and 45 RBIs last season with Columbus, the Triple-A affiliate for the Indians. Pitchers and catchers report to the team's Spring Training facility in Peoria on Feb. 12. Position players report on Feb. 15 with the first full-squad workout set for the following day. 3 Padres give Valhalla High grad O'Sullivan a shot Written by Bill Center 6:30 p.m., Dec. 12, 2012 Sean O’Sullivan is coming home. The former Valhalla High and Grossmont College star signed with the Padres Tuesday as a minor league free agent with an invitation to spring training. “I’ve got a shot,” said the 25-year-old right-handed starting pitcher who was granted free agency at the end of the 2012 season. “I told the Padres I’m not looking for a handout. I wanted the Padres to sign me so I could fight for a shot in my hometown. The Padres are an ideal situation for me. When I became a free agent, I told my agent the Padres were my first choice. It didn’t take long for a deal to be worked out.” In addition to O’Sullivan, the Padres added two other minor league free agents Tuesday – catcher Rene Rivera and infielder Gregorio Petit. Both also received invitations to spring training. The Padres also re-signed Juan Pablo Oramas. The left-handed starting pitcher was released last month to create an opening on the 40-man roster. Oramas, 22, who had elbow reconstruction surgery during last season, will still be rehabbing next spring and did not receive an invitation to spring training. Drafted in the third round out by the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim out of Grossmont College in 2005, O’Sullivan has a 10-14 record with a 6.13 earned run average in 43 major league games (34 starts) over parts of four seasons. He made his major league debut with the Angels in 2009 at the age of 21. O’Sullivan spent all of last season in the Pacific Coast League with Triple-A affiliates of Kansas City and Toronto. He was a combined 14-7 with a 4.23 ERA in 31 games (19 starts). He was 9-3 with a 2.73 ERA in the second half of the season with Toronto’s Triple-A team in Las Vegas. “I was hoping I’d get a September call-up with the Blue Jays,” said O’Sullivan. “When I didn’t get called up and became a free agent, I didn’t know what to expect.” O’Sullivan said he heard from six other major league teams. “But this was the first time I hadn’t been controlled by a team and gave me a chance to sign with the Padres,” said O’Sullivan. “I’ve wanted to be a Padre since I was four or five.” Petit, 28, has a .266 career average in the minor leagues with 163 doubles, 22 triples and 51 homers over 3,411 major league at-bats. The Venezuelan native played 25 major league games with Oakland in 2008-09 and went 15-for-54. He hit .260 in Triple-A last season. Rivera, 29, hit .226 with 14 doubles, one triple, 10 home runs and 34 RBI in 288 at-bats at Triple-A in the Minnesota system last season. The Puerto Rico native has hit .193 in 98 games over parts of four major league seasons. 4 Willie Blair promoted to Padres bullpen coach Written by Bill Center 5:40 p.m., Dec. 11, 2012 The Padres filled two staff vacancies Tuesday, promoting Willie Blair to the job as major league bullpen coach and adding Brett McCabe as strength and conditioning coach. Blair, 46, who pitched for the Padres in 1995-1996, has worked the past two seasons as the pitching coach of the Padres Single-A Fort Wayne affiliate. While with the TinCaps, Blair helped develop some of the top young pitching prospects in the Padres system. McCabe, 33, joins the Padres organization after spending the previous seven seasons with the Arizona Diamondbacks. He most recently served as Arizona’s minor league strength and conditioning coordinator, overseeing strength and conditioning programs for each of that organization’s seven minor league affiliates. The addition of Blair and McCabe left the Double-A manager slot the only vacancy needing to be filled on the Padres staff. Fort Wayne’s pitchers have finished among the Midwest League leaders in staff earned run average in each of the past two seasons under Blair, who filled the post that was originally offered to veteran Bob McClure. McClure turned down the offer from the Padres for family reasons. “After McClure, we cleared the decks and took another look at it,” said Padres general manager Josh Byrnes. “We brought Willie down to Nashville to meet with everyone. “Willie has clearly demonstrated since he’s been with us that he’s an excellent teacher with a tough edge. He’s very real and knowledgeable. He has a good way with players.” A native of Kentucky, Blair’s playing career spanned 12 seasons starting in 1990. The right-hander was 9-11 with a 4.46 ERA in 100 games (12 starts) over his two seasons with the Padres. He finished with a 60-86 career record and a 5.04 ERA in 418 major league games (139 starts).

  • Ubaldo Inspired by Challenging Upbringing Veteran Righty Motivated
    Ubaldo inspired by challenging upbringing Veteran righty motivated to succeed after growing up poor in Dominican Republic By Zack Meisel / MLB.com | 08/16/12 10:00 AM ET Outside of San Cristobal, Dominican Republic, near the market, lies a hole. Natives refer to the area as Hoyo Caliente, or "Hot Hole." The destitute neighborhood hosts constant foot traffic from market-goers and a high volume of residents within its tight quarters. Indians pitcher Ubaldo Jimenez spent most of his childhood in Hoyo Caliente, which he described as "always crowded," "really poor" and "really dangerous." Every day, Jimenez and the rest of the kids in the project played baseball, sometimes in the front yard, other times in the street. Once in a while, they would play on the roof of a nearby store. Anywhere to escape the harsh reality surrounding them. They didn't have bats and balls at their disposal. There was no Louisville Slugger factory nearby. Rather, in the sweltering heat of the ghetto, the youngsters swung a tree branch at the detached head of a doll. Such ingenuity would make MacGyver proud. "It didn't matter what we used," said the soft-spoken Jimenez in his calm, high-pitched voice. "We were poor; we didn't have a lot of things. ... It was crazy. In the Dominican, all the kids really love baseball. It doesn't matter how you play it." Jimenez's humble beginnings helped shape who he is today: A lanky pitcher who mostly keeps to himself and rarely shows emotion on the field, even though he has experienced the highest peaks and most cavernous valleys that a baseball career can offer.

  • A's News Clips, Thursday, March 25, 2010 A's Receive Reliever Edwar Ramirez from Rangers in Trade for Infielder Gregorio Petit
    A’s News Clips, Thursday, March 25, 2010 A's receive reliever Edwar Ramirez from Rangers in trade for infielder Gregorio Petit By Joe Stiglich, Oakland Tribune The A's added some insurance for their wounded bullpen Wednesday, trading infielder Gregorio Petit to the Texas Rangers for right-handed reliever Edwar Ramirez. When spring training began, the relief corps was one area that didn't appear to need reinforcements. But closer Andrew Bailey, Michael Wuertz and Craig Breslow all have been slowed by injuries, and Joey Devine has recovered slower than expected after missing all of last season due to elbow surgery. "We obviously were looking for some bullpen depth with injuries and some uncertainties as far as timetables are concerned with those guys," A's assistant GM David Forst said. Ramirez, who turns 29 on Sunday, was in uniform for Wednesday night's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Phoenix Municipal Stadium, which ended in a 3-3 tie after nine innings. It was the second time he's been dealt in 15 days. The New York Yankees traded him to Texas on March 9. Ramirez went 6-2 with a 5.22 ERA in 96 games for the Yankees over three seasons. The A's hope his addition is merely precautionary at this point. Bailey, Wuertz and Breslow all should be ready for opening day if they keep progressing at their current pace. Wuertz will make his second exhibition appearance tonight after being bothered by shoulder soreness. Breslow, who has elbow tendinitis, threw from the mound Wednesday and said he hopes to get in a game this weekend.
