SAN DIEGO – Edgar Gonzalez Wednesday said he would opt for free agency after the Padres dropped him from their 40-man roster and outrighted him to Triple-A Portland.

“I think this is the end of my run here,” Gonzalez said. “I love San Diego. And the Padres gave me an opportunity that I'm thankful for. But my future is probably elsewhere.”

The older brother of Adrian Gonzalez, Edgar had spent nine years in the minor leagues when he made his major league debut with the Padres in May 2008.

Edgar Gonzalez hit .274 in 2008 with seven homers and 33 RBI in 325 at-bats over 111 games. He hit .216 with four homers and 18 RBI in just 153 at-bats this season.

Edgar has paid his dues playing many years in the minors...I really hope he gets picked up and can finish his career on a high note.

Thanks Edgar for you contribution to the team!
