Any upside to Milton Bradley?

[muetze]

I know he has talent but he is playing in SD, injury prone, and a malcontent.....any fantasy value here?

Yes there is upside. SD is not that unkind to RH hitters (SD has just never had one worth mentioning, not that Bradley is "power" hitter but still). He is capapble of reaching double digit HRs and SBs w/ ~280+ average.

quoting Tristan Cockcroft @ ESPN

Something else to consider: Bradley, who has a history of attitude problems, was a .282 hitter with seven homers and 25 RBIs in his first 50 games for the Dodgers, and a .280-8-28 hitter in his first 50 games for the Athletics, which indicates that he often gets off to a hot start for a new team.

Bradley will be given a shot and has potential but he'll be given a briefer look than usual. If he doesn't perform right away for the Padres, I hear the team has a good chance on making a move for Adam Dunn...
