The Padres announced tonight that they traded pitcher Casey Kelly and catcher Ricardo Rodriquez to the Atlanta Braves to acquire catcher Christian Bethancourt. Casey Kelly was the last player remaining from the Adrian Gonzalez trade from way back when. Kelly was injured a good portion of his time in the Padres organization, only playing in 9 major league games. He just returned to start for the Padres at the end of the 2015 season.
