Matt Stairs: Signed minor league contract with Padres

Matt Stairs can provide a lot of power if he makes contact with the ball. Stairs does strike out a lot and will hit for a very low average so his reliability as a pinch hitter is questionable. He does walk a lot however, so as long as he's disciplined he can get on base, but his value is really with the home run. He can't field any position so he will be only a pinch hitter at best.

The Padres still need a second baseman and Felipe Lopez would be a perfect fit.
