The addition of salt to our many wounds...Hairston is headed to Oakland for "prospects".

This one truly makes me sick. I am a longtime Friars fan and have defended K.T. on numerous occasions but cannot on this one. Hairston is making 1.25 M this year so it's not a cost cutting move by any stretch of the imagination. With this, Adrian will not see another pitch this season and maybe for years to come. Hariston also seemed to be a signable guy for the future. Now we have to see Kyle "I'm not a big-leaguer" Blanks. Note to the Padres front office: This move only leads to less respect from the fan-base. The crowds should be low for this upcoming series due to your tremendous efforts. ( I am not blaming this all on Towers). Anyway, I've never been more ashamed to be a pads fan. Should I be looking forward to Walter Silva's bid for his first major-league win tommorow, given that hes attempted a dozen times already?
