San Diego Padres: Veteran Reliever Matt Magill Added on Minor League Contract

On Monday, the club began the week by signing long time minor leaguer Matt Magill. At 27 years old, the right-hander has already pitched for nine seasons in the minors, which included two short stints in the majors.

Slowly making his way through the Los Angeles Dodgers’ minor league system after being drafted in the 31st round in 2008, Magill made his major league debut in 2013. Mostly though, this season was spent in AAA.

After spending 2014 and 2015 in the minors, Magill returned to the majors for another brief stint in 2016.
