San Diego Padres: Michael Gettys Continues To Roll Down Under
San Diego Padres outfield prospect Michael Gettys has been on a roll in the Australian Baseball League.
After the San Diego Padres left outfielder Michael Gettys off the 40-man roster, leaving him unprotected entering the Rule 5 draft, odds seemed likely that at least one franchise would take a flyer on the potential of Gettys and his raw tools. That didn’t happen, meaning the former 2nd-round pick gets to return to the organization in 2019, likely with the AAA El Paso Chihuahuas.
