Padres Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)  ...more ?

Just three days ago, it appeared that both Dustin Moseley and Anthony Bass had spots secured on the Padres pitching staff.

One would be the No. 5 starter. The other would be the long man in the bullpen.

Then the Padres signed free agent Micah Owings to a one-year contract worth $1 million.

All bets are off.

The Padres now have three right-handed pitchers going for two jobs?the No. 5 starter and the long man in the bullpen. And all three can do either job.

Moseley, who avoided arbitration by agreeing to a $2,012,500 contract with the Padres, would appear to have one of the spots clinched. The 30-year-old was 3-10 with the Padres last season despite having a 3.30 ERA in 20 starts.
