Padres acquired OF Seth Smith from the Athletics for RHP Luke Gregerson.
FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal was the first to report word of the swap. Smith, 31, batted .253/.329/.391 with eight home runs and 40 RBI in 117 games this past season for Oakland. He's the owner of a respectable .798 career OPS and should give San Diego some much-needed offense. Gregerson is a setup man with a 2.88 career ERA. He'll be pitching in front of new A's closer Jim Johnson in 2014.
