The Padres have signed utilityman Jerry Hairston Jr. to a one-year, $2.1 million deal. San Diego completed a trade with Oakland on Saturday to reacquire Hairston's younger brother, Scott. "I thought San Diego would be a great fit, then boom, Scott gets traded over there, and it's icing on the cake," Jerry said in a phone interview. "It's amazing," he added. "Before he got traded I asked him about San Diego, and he said it was an unbelievable place to play, with great fans and a great organization. I had no idea he would get traded back here. He was trying to sell me on San Diego, and he did a great job of it. Then it just so happens he got traded."
