Padres promote Quirk to El Paso

The trickle-down from Pat Murphy's promotion to Padres interim manager has begun. On Wednesday, Jamie Quirk was named the new manager at Triple-A El Paso.

Quirk replaces Murphy, who Tuesday, following the firing of Bud Black, became the Padres' manager for the rest of the season. Quirk had been in his first season managing Double-A San Antonio, posting a 28-35 record.
