| SAN DIEGO -- Mark Bellhorn and Scott Williamson once again are on the move. The San Diego Padres released the well-traveled Bellhorn and Williamson on Thursday. A 32-year-old infielder, Bellhorn batted .190 with eight home runs and 27 RBI in 115 games this season for the Padres, his sixth team. A playoff hero with the Boston Red Sox in 2004, Bellhorn had signed with San Diego as a free agent last December after splitting the 2005 campaign with the Red Sox and New York Yankees. Williamson, 30, went 2-4 with a 5.72 earned-run average in 42 combined relief appearances for the Chicago Cubs and Padres this season, going 0-1 with a 7.36 ERA in 11 games with San Diego after being acquired on July 22. Williamson is 27-28 with 55 saves and a 3.32 ERA in 328 games -- 10 starts -- with four teams. The Padres also waived infielder Manny Alexander and claimed pitcher Justin Hampson off waivers from the Colorado Rockies. |
