Sean Gallagher

Sean Gallagher was included in the Scott Hairston deal, making the package the As dealt to the Padres Craig Italiano, Ryan Webb, and Gallagher.

Gallagher is currently on the AAA DL with a knee injury, but he seems like a potentially big prize for the Padres if he successfully heals. He had quite a bit of success in the minors, striking out enough batters and giving up few enough homers to survive questionable control and consistently have a FIP in the 3s. In 128 IP over 2 seasons in the majors, he's actually done reasonably well - striking out 113, though walking 65, for an FIP of 4.50 - not a disastrous start for a 23 year old pitcher. Considering he's moving to one of the best pitchers' park in the game, he might have an even better chance to be an impact pitcher.
