Padres signed C Rene Rivera to a minor league contract.
He also gets a spring training invite. Rivera, 29, batted .226/.307/.385 with 10 homers and a .693 OPS in 95 games with the Twins' Triple-A affiliate this past season. He'll function as organizational depth.
Wed, Dec 12, 2012 03:09:00 PM
Twins reassigned C Rene Rivera and RHP Pedro Florimon to minor league camp.
Rivera posted an ugly .144/.211/.202 in 100-plus plate appearances last year for the Twins. He never stood a chance of cracking the club's 2012 Opening Day roster.
Tue, Mar 27, 2012 08:54:00 AM
Twins re-signed C Rene Rivera to a minor league contract.
Rivera batted just .144/.211/.202 over 104 at-bats with the Twins this season but is considered a solid defensive backstop. He'll likely begin 2012 at Triple-A, though.
Wed, Dec 14, 2011 05:17:00 PM
Twins sent C Rene Rivera outright to Triple-A Rochester.
Rivera batted just .144/.211/.202 over 104 at-bats with the Twins this season but is regarded as a solid defense catcher. The 28-year-old could stick around as organizational depth in 2012.

Yasmani Grandal
Suspended
Yasmani Grandal will begin a minor league rehab assignment Saturday with Triple-A Tucson.
Grandal is still serving his 50-game suspension for a positive PED test, but he is allowed to begin a 10-game minor league assignment. The 24-year-old backstop is eligible to join the Padres on May 28 and may split playing time with Nick Hundley upon his return.

Logan Forsythe
D.L.
Logan Forsythe (foot) will begin playing in extended spring training games on Friday.
Forsythe has been taking batting practice for a week with no issues and is ready to take the next step. He's been out all season with plantar fasciitis in his right foot, so he'll need plenty of rehab at-bats before returning.

Cameron Maybin (wrist) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Tucson on Friday.
The Padres want Maybin to get around 30 rehab at-bats, so he should return sometime next week. The outfielder has been sidelined since mid-April with a nagging right wrist ailment.

Clayton Richard
D.L.
Clayton Richard (illness) gave up two runs in six innings Tuesday in his second minor league rehab start with Triple-A Tucson.
Richard, out since May 4 with an intestinal virus, gave up five hits and no walks while striking out four. The southpaw threw 65 out of 94 pitches for strikes. It should be enough for the Padres to activate him from the disabled list.

Cory Luebke
D.L.
Cory Luebke (elbow) has had his throwing program stopped for the second time this year in his attempt to return from Tommy John surgery.
Luebke was shut down in early March before resuming sessions of catch on April 1, and he had progressed to throwing off a mound before this latest setback. Obviously none of this bodes well for his mission to return to live major league games by the All-Star break.

Joe Wieland
D.L.
Joe Wieland (elbow) threw a bullpen session Friday at the Padres' spring training complex.
Wieland, currently on the 60-day disabled list, is nine months removed from Tommy John surgery and will continued to be moved along slowly. If he can avoid setbacks, Wieland should be game-ready sometime after the All-Star break.

Casey Kelly
D.L.
Padres placed LHP Casey Kelly on the 60-day disabled list with a left elbow injury.
Kelly will undergo Tommy John surgery during the first week of April. Obviously, he won't be making any contribution this season.
