Padres manager Bud Black announced the 2010 lineup and starting pitching rotation on Wednesday.
Well — sort of.
At a Padres luncheon at the San Diego Hall of Champions, Black and general manager Jed Hoyer talked with fans about offseason moves, keeping Adrian Gonzalez, the start of Spring Training and what the lineup would look like if the season started today.
Black also noted that pitcher Chris Young appears healthy and ready for Spring Training.
“Chris Young is feeling great,” Black said of the starter, who missed much of the 2009 season with a shoulder injury. “He’s throwing off the mound. He’s going to be ready for full activity in the spring. We’re looking forward to him bouncing back.”
Black expects Kevin Correia, newcomer Jon Garland and Clayton Richard to round out the top four of the rotation while second-year fire-baller Mat Latos will compete with Sean Gallagher, Tim Stauffer, Wade Leblanc and Cesar Ramos for the fifth spot.
