Iglesias signed a minor-league contract with the Padres on Tuesday, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.
Scouting Report
Is fantastic defensively thanks to a great glove at shortstop. Reads plays extremely well, has superb reflexes and a good arm. Shows some pop with the bat. Can also steal a base. Is severely lacking in the power department, which limits his run-producing capabilities. Also, leg injuries have been an issue during his development years and may fester.
Long Range Potential: Great defensive infielder.
