So far, San Diego is not getting as much bang for their buck as they hoped, due to a mix of injury and underperformance from the shortstop. While his numbers with the Padres have not been disastrous, they represent a steep dropoff from where he was with the Boston Red Sox. While he had multiple seasons in Beantown hitting over .300, along with multiple 20+ homer and 100+ RBI campaigns, Bogaerts has yet to eclipse any of those figures with the Padres. In 131 games this season, he is slashing .262\/.330\/.387 with 10 home runs, 49 RBI, 29 doubles, and a 98 OPS+.<\/p>\n<p>McCoy, a 30-year-old infielder, has had cups of coffee at the major league level for the last three seasons.

He had his first 10 career hits (including two doubles) and three RBI last season. This year, McCoy is 0-for-5 with three strikeouts in the majors.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo Credit: Orlando Ramirez-Imagn Images<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The San Diego Padres made a pair of roster moves on Friday afternoon.
