M's claim Padres infielder; catcher Johnson returns


Posted at 3:41 pm by By Kirby Arnold

While we wait for results of the MRI on Erik Bedard's ailing left shoulder, the Mariners already have made some news this afternoon.

They claimed light-hitting infielder Josh Wilson from the Padres, and he's expected to join the team tomorrow. Catcher Rob Johnson, on bereavement leave after the death of his mother-in-law last week, has returned and will be in uniform for tonight's game against the Diamondbacks. And the Mariners designated catcher Guillermo Quiroz for assignment, meaning they have 10 days to trade, release or outright his contract to the minor leagues.

The Mariners will have to make another roster move tomorrow if Wilson joins them.

Wilson started the season with the Diamondbacks organization before they designated him for assignment May 13. The Padres claimed him off waivers two days later. In 27 big-league games this season with the two teams, he batted .156. He's a career .219 hitter in 356 at-bats since 2005 with the Marlins, Nationals, Rays, Diamondbacks and Padres.
