Atkins can play 1B/3B and should be a good stop gap for one year til Brandon Snyder and Josh Bell are ready, and even then they could still keep him.
Mike Gonzalez is interesting..dont think he's closer material but a solid bullpen arm is nice to have.
The Os are also supposedly the other team with Boston in the Adrian Gonzalez sweepstakes BUT the Padres want Adam Jones and Brian Matusz at a minimum from the Os (Buchholz and Ellsbury from Boston)..dont wanna give up Adam Jones..and apparently the Os boards dont wanna give up Matusz so..I dunno. They could use that bat..he would fn rake the ball at Camden Yards..
