Bill Center -  Open to any and all questions -- with a few exceptions

If Moorad has said that he will increase payroll for 2010, what type if free agents might be on the list?
11:03
Bill Center -  

Even though he says he will increase payroll over the years, Moorad asaid he is not inclined to go the free agent route to fill the Padres needs. I still don't think they will be in ther market for the Class A type free agent

If Sproles leaves but LT stays, what's the Chargers' plan for a backup RB? Free agent or draft someone in the 4th or 5th round?
11:05
Bill Center -  Given the RB situation, I think they have to draft a running back. Even if both stay, LT's future is in question and Sproles can't be in there every down. So draft a guy now who would be ready to be the guy in 2010

Moorad is know for signing high priced prospects. Will he have control over the 09 draft becuase I am tired of these signability pick like Schmidt and Dykstra?
11:06
Bill Center -  Moorad will have control of day-to-day operations as soon as the deal is closed, which both sides agree is likely before Opening Day. That would put him in control of the June draft.

Does anyone in the organization really think Mark Prior has a shot at pitching for the Padres this year?
11:08
Bill Center -  Yes. Prior and the Padres staff are cautiously optimistic. He is far ahead of where he was a year ago. His velocity is already in the mid-80s. But it could also end on one throw if something else goes in the shoulder. But he is throwing 'free and easy' from a more natural slot than last spring

Does Kyle Blanks have enough athletic ability to play the outfield?
