Parrino makes final cut with Owings, Hermida
Andy Parrino - 3B - San Diego Padres
April 4, 2012 - 4:10 AM ET

Andy Parrino claimed one of the Padres' three final Opening Day roster spots on Tuesday.

With five homers and a .212/.278/.455 batting line, Parrino did enough to earn the utility infielder role. Micah Owings and Jeremy Hermida landed the other two roster spots. Owings had a very disappointing spring, and will look to build on last season's decent rebound effort. Hermida hit a solid .313 with four home runs, but his primary role will be as a backup outfielder while Mark Kotsay is on the mend.
