According to a report from Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune, San Diego Padres minor-league shortstop Allen Cordoba is still feeling the effects of the concussion he suffered on February 7th in his native country of Panama.
He was a Rule 5 draft pick before last season, selected out of the St. Louis Cardinals organization. After spending all of last season with the Friars, as per Rule 5 Draft guidelines, Cordoba was all but guaranteed to spend this season, and likely a little longer, in the Padres’ farm system.
While the 22-year-old is still technically on the team’s active 40-man roster, as per manager Andy Green‘s comments to Acee, it doesn’t seem that Cordoba will be returning to action anytime soon.
