Geoff Baker of the Seattle Times reports that the Padres and Mariners have apparently talked about Mariners' short stop Yuniesky Betancourt.
Baker says that the Mariners could receive a package of, one of, Chase Headley and prospect Matt Antonelli.
I'm not sure that this rumor has any legitimacy to it especially because the Padres would more likely trade Kevin Kouzmanoff to move Headley to third than trade Headley away. Matt Antonelli would be more likely to be a trade candidate, but since he hasn't played a single game this season, I'm curious as to why the Mariners would even be interested.

Seven players optioned to the minors
The Padres made seven more roster moves this afternoon, optioning players to Triple-A Portland to their minor league camp.
Pitchers Josh Geer, Scott Patterson and Joe Thatcher, catcher Jose Lobaton, infielder Matt Antonelli and outfielder Will Venable were all optioned to Triple-A Portland.
In addition to those six, outfielder Chad Huffman was re-assigned to the Padres' minor league camp.

Estes roughed up, Padres rally not enough against KC
Left-hander Shawn Estes was looking forward to facing live hitters for the first time since 2006 and to be doing it in a Padres uniform.
Estes might have been a little too excited. The Padres' left-hander lasted only 2/3 of an inning, giving up 6 earned runs on 4 hits to go with 2 walks, though the defense behind him botching 2 potential double plays didn't help matters as the Padres lost the first game of spring training 13-9 against the Kansas City Royals of the AL Central.
Offensively, there were some bright spots. Jim Edmonds just missed a HR in the first inning and had an RBI double in the 3rd. Young prospects Will Venable and Matt Antonelli both connected on HR's for the Padres. Rule 5 pick Callix Crabbe also had himself a double and reached base twice. Edgar Gonzalez, older brother to Padres's 1st baseman Adrian Gonzalez, had himself a good day at the plate, going 2-for-2 with a walk and 2 RBI's
On Saturday, the Padres will face the Seattle Mariners at the Peoria Sports Complex. The start will go to left-hander Randy Wolf, who will be followed by right-hander Justin Germano who is scheduled for 2 innings.
