After a more-than-disappointing finish to San Diego's first two games against the San Francisco Giants, a wave of Padres news hit the books that could rival the wave caused by Mike Yastrzemski's walk-off homer that splashed into the Bay along with another bullpen struggle on Tuesday. Let's hope for a better result tonight.

A couple of former Padres are headed either to free agency or inter-division rivals while Luis Garcia, who lost a late lead last night, failed to show up to the postgame media session.
