Padres designated INF Jeudy Valdez for assignment.
Valdez was cleared to make room for the newly-claimed Fautino De Los Santos on the 40-man roster. The 23-year-old infielder batted .225/.273/.364 with 12 homers and a .637 OPS last season with Double-A San Antonio. There's a chance he could pass through waivers unclaimed.
