Newsbreakers

September 16, 2009

Long-reliever Edward Mujica could make it through just 4.2 innings on Wednesday, surrendering two runs in a no-decision. The Padres would go on to beat the Diamondbacks 6-5 in ten innings.

Our View:

Mujica did strike out five in just his second start of the season, however, and coupled with a scoreless four inning spot-start against the Rockies from last Friday, he could be considered for the Pads' 2010 rotation.

September 9, 2009

MLB.com reports that long-reliever Edward Mujica will start against the Rockies on Friday to give the rotation extra rest.

Our View:

The Padres are saying that they may hold Mujica to 60 pitches on Friday, so unless he's extremely efficient, he won't last very long. That make him a pass in NL-only leagues. He's 3-4 with a 3.51 ERA on the season and will be followed in the rotation by Tim Stauffer and Clayton Richard respectively.

August 16, 2009

Edward Mujica left Sunday's game after the fourth inning with a contusion on the back of his right knee. Mujica took a comebacker from Albert Pujols to the back of the knee.

Our View:

Mujica looked like he was in a good amount of pain, but it shouldn't be anything structural. Expect him to be fine in a few days.

August 1, 2009

Edward Mujica will not make his scheduled start on Saturday. The Padres will instead turn to Clayton Richard, one of the pieces acquired in the Jake Peavy trade. Mujica, who tossed 4.1 scoreless innings on Friday, will move back to the bullpen.

Our View:

The Padres may still try to turn Mujica into a starter down the road. He leads the Padres in holds (11), but the team has moved on with other setup options, namely Mike Adams and Luke Gregerson.

July 29, 2009

Edward Mujica will replace the struggling Josh Geer in the Padres rotation, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune.

Our View:

Mujica has pitched well out of the Padres bullpen this season, but has apparently not started a game at any level since 2004. For now, don't take a flier on him.

April 1, 2009

MLB.com reports that the Indians have traded pitcher Edward Mujica to the Padres for a player to be named later and cash considerations.

Our View:

Mujica has had a very rough go of it this spring as he has posted an 8.10 ERA over nine appearances. He is out of options and was not able to earn a spot in Cleveland's bullpen. It looks as if the Padres are ready to offer him a spot in theirs, but he has zero fantasy value.

February 25, 2009

Edward Mujica took the loss on Wednesday after a rough outing. He allowed four runs on three hits and one walk.

Our View:

Mujica made 33 relief appearances for the Indians last year after being called up in late May. He posted an unimpressive 6.75 ERA to go with a 3-2 record.
