  • White Sox's Samuel Zavala: Headed to Chicago in Cease deal

    The Padres traded Zavala, Drew Thorpe, Jairo Iriarte and Steven Wilson to the White Sox on Wednesday in exchange for Dylan Cease, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.

    Zavala slashed .267/.420/.451 with 14 homers and 71 RBI last season at Single-A while also stealing 20 bags. However, he went just 4-for-51 at the plate upon being promoted to High-A in late August. Clearly, the 19-year-old outfielder has plenty of work to do yet in the minors, but the tools are there for Zavala to develop into a solid big-leaguer in the future.

  • Padres' Samuel Zavala: Promoted to High-A

    Zavala was promoted from Single-A Lake Elsinore to High-A Fort Wayne on Sunday, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

    Zavala spent the start of the season with the Single-A club and slashed .267/.420/.451 with 14 homers, 83 runs, 71 RBI and 20 stolen bases over 101 games. The 19-year-old will now attempt to make an impact against High-A competition late in the year.

  • Padres' Samuel Zavala: High OBP at Single-A

    Zavala has a .248/.389/.394 slash line, five home runs, six steals and a 34.8 percent hard-hit rate in 40 games for Single-A Lake Elsinore.

    The lefty-hitting 18-year-old outfielder has the worst line-drive rate (11.2 percent) of his career, which, along with his 28.8 percent strikeout rate, is contributing to his low batting average. Even so, he is the third-youngest qualified hitter in the California League and has been significantly better than league average (119 wRC+). A hot streak could net Zavala a promotion to the Midwest League.

  • Padres' Samuel Zavala: Moves up to Single-A
