Nice one, Cooter.

atleast they'll get something for him
The Padres have agreed to pay for the sunflower seeds for the rest of the year.
wow, what are the padres thinking? and how bad must their 3rd base situation be?

I heard that we got some pre-chewed bubble gum and a ball of lint in return.
All in all, I say its a far trade.

Anything, which includes getting rid of his contract, was a good return on Morgan at this point.
I'm alright with this no matter what comes back....and I hope he does well in SD.

Two days after they designated Morgan Ensberg for assignment, the Astros announced they sent the third baseman, along with cash considerations, to the Padres in exchange for cash considerations and a player to be named later, or just cash considerations Tuesday.
Sounds like we may not even be getting a player, but just some cash. I'm ok with that, much better than paying his contract.
If Cooter's right this could be great for Ballapeno!!
WOW. Did not see that one coming, thought we were just going to release him. Not a bad move at all.
I figured he might be worth a Tim Redding.
I'm glad to see Ensberg go. Unfortunately, now we'll all have the opportunity to watch him become a major Astro-killer. That's the way it always works- suck in Houston, kick butt elsewhere.
Yeah, he'll probably go and get his swing back, and become a .350 hitter... either way, I can't say I am sad to see him go. It was long overdue.
I wish him the best, hes already got a home out in SD and he was always one of the nice guys.
aggielax, good job keeping up with your astros.com
yeah, best for both sides to just move on. hopefully the padres' hitting coach can convince morgan to pick one batting stance and stick with it for more than 3 weeks.
glad he's getting to go home though...always been a good guy.

This makes no sense:
Is that like interest payment?!
I send you $3M with Ensberg, and at the end of the season, you give me $3M, less interest?!

keeping it Padres-related, SD has released Jose Cruz Jr. I would love to hear Cruuuuuuuuuuz in Houston again...and maybe send Lane back to Round Rock.
Maybe they could include in the trade, a few appearances by the san diego chicken, if he is still kicking. At least he was entertaining. Baseball regular season needs to end by Aug 31st. Knock 12 games off the schedule and start on March 15th.
Ha! Figures.
I posted this on another thread but I'll post it here as well. Ensberg was on 790 Monday after he was desigmated for assignment. It was pretty funny.
Go here to listen. It starts about 4:30 mark on the Monday 7/30 hour 2.

2-2 with a Run, and 2 RBI's so far in his first game as a Padres. One homer and one double. Figures, huh?!?!?
He had one AB last night and struck out.
And another 2-run HR...
I'm gonna be sick

so... any news on what we are getting?
hopefully something good/decent
figures he gets released then goes on a tear. he's got talent just lost the aggression at the plate

he'll probably be an allstar again next season.
he'll atleast kill the ball when he plays the astros. happens all the time with houston

What is it with the Astros organization? It seems like when guys leave they instantly become better players.
figures he would have a game like that...not sure if he'll keep it up or not... sucks if the Astros lost him and he starts doing awesome. I think he's a nice guy, so I wish him the best, but he just couldn't get it going with the Astros, so again I am not sad to see him leave the organization...and, this is only ONE game, so let's see how things go...
