2012 Report Card: Shortstop
The Padres went into 2012 hoping for a bounce back season from the middle infield, instead production dipped, especially at shortstop. After former GM Jed Hoyer traded away four players and committed $12.5M to Bartlett, hoping he would be a sparkplug and good defender.

Jason Bartlett, Or Not
The rumor mill keeps mentioning Sox interest in Bartlett, but all reports seem to refer to this Jayson Stark column (emphasis mine): If the Red Sox decide this spring they don’t like their shortstop options, one guy who’s still out there is Jason Bartlett.

Assessing Padres Middle Infield Options for 2012

Jed Hoyer and the front office brass failed when they brought in Orlando Hudson and traded (overpaying) for Jason Bartlett in hopes of "playing Petco Park into an advantage,” with two solid defenders up the middle.
