Tim Stauffer - S - San Diego Padres

Padres signed RHP Tim Stauffer to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.
Stauffer, who had surgery in August to repair a flexor tendon in his right elbow, is currently about two weeks behind his usual throwing program. The 30-year-old right-hander may not be ready for the start of the season, but he's a fine gamble on a minor league deal.
