beating the depleted Los Angeles Lakers 111-104 on Sunday nig

San Diego, CA (SportsNetwork.com) - The San Diego Padres continued what has been a whirlwind week with Fridays acquisition of two-time All-Star outfielder Justin Upton from the Atlanta Braves. Upton, a National League Silver Slugger Award recipient in 2014, heads to the new-look Padres along with minor league pitcher Aaron Northcraft, with the Braves receiving a package of four prospects for the impending free agent. San Diego sent pitcher Max Fried, the teams first-round pick in the 2012 draft, to Atlanta along with infielders Dustin Peterson and Jace Peterson and outfielder Mallex Smith. Upton, who drove in a career-best 102 runs while belting 29 homers and hitting .270 last season, joins fellow new acquisitions Matt Kemp and Wil Myers in San Diegos overhauled outfield. Kemp was officially obtained from the NL West rival Los Angeles Dodgers on Thursday, with the 2013 AL Rookie of the Year Myers coming over from Tampa Bay as part of a three-team, 11-player swap that was finalized earlier Friday. Padres first-year general manager A.J. Preller pulled off another trade for a hitter on Thursday, landing catcher Derek Norris from Oakland for young pitchers Jesse Hahn and R.J. Alvarez. The first overall pick in the 2005 draft, Upton spent his first six major league seasons with the Arizona Diamondbacks before being dealt to Atlanta -- where he played alongside his brother, B.J. --- prior to the start of the 2013 campaign. Upton has averaged 25 homers and 80 RBI since 2009 and owns a .274 career average, while his 10 long balls at Petco Park are tied for the most by a visiting player in the stadiums history. Those numbers should bring a boost to a Padres offense that was the worst in the majors last season, placing last in runs scored (535), batting average (.226) and on-base percentage (.292). Fried, the seventh overall pick of the 2012 MLB Draft, figures to be the centerpiece of the deal from the Braves standpoint. The 20-year-old lefty entered last season rated as the No. 53 overall prospect by Baseball America, though he pitched just 10 2/3 innings before undergoing Tommy John surgery in August. Jace Peterson hit .307 with 24 doubles over 86 games between Double and Triple A last season, but went just 6-for-53 at the plate with the Padres in his first taste of the majors. Dustin Peterson, a second-round selection of San Diego in 2013, spent last season at Low Class A Fort Wayne and hit .233 with 10 homers, 79 RBI and 31 doubles in 126 games. Smith is best known for his speed, having led the minors with 88 stolen bases while splitting last season between Fort Wayne and High-A Lake Elsinore. The 21-year-old combined to hit .310 with five homers and 31 RBI over 120 games. Northcraft posted a 7-3 record with a 2.88 ERA in 13 games (12 starts) with Double-A Mississippi, but struggled in a climb up the ladder. In 13 appearances (12 starts) with Triple-A Gwinnett, the right-hander went 0-7 with a 6.54 ERA.

Manager Alex Ferguson says the injury was sustained while the player tried to hit a volley toward the end of training on Tuesday.MINNEAPOLIS -- Mike Yeos three-year run in Minnesota has been anything but easy. The Wild coach has had to navigate key injuries to his roster, his own growing pains in his first NHL head coaching job and the considerable expectations brought forth when the teams owner spent nearly $200 million on two players two summers ago. The Wild have improved under Yeo in each season, and Yeo has improved himself enough to earn the faith of the Wild leadership going forward. Yeo signed a multi-year contract extension with the Wild on Saturday, the team announced. Terms of the deal were not disclosed, but the agreement was expected after Yeo guided the team out of the first round of the playoffs for just the second time in franchise history in the final year of his original deal. He has gone 104-82-26 in three seasons with the Wild. "Mike has done a very good job the last three seasons as our head coach and we look forward to his leadership going forward," Wild general manager Chuck Fletcher said. Yeo was an unproven coach with no NHL head coaching track record to go by when Fletcher picked him to take over for Todd Richards three seasons ago. The Wild faded after a strong start to Yeos first season and never found a rhythm in his second year, an abbreviated 48-game schedule due to the lockout. The Wild did snap a five-season playoff drought in his second season, but were dominated by Chicago in a first-round deffeat.dddddddddddd His status was tenuous at best by New Years Eve last season, when the Wild lost their sixth straight game and Yeo felt compelled at the next practice to tell the players he wouldnt coach simply to save his job. But despite foot injuries that kept stars Zach Parise and Mikko Koivu and key defenceman Jared Spurgeon out for long stretches of the winter, Yeo helped hold the group together while the wins picked up. The Wild played all season with a carousel in the net, too, with four different goalies starting 10 games each or more. "There were times where the wheels couldve come off, and he kept it together," said defenceman Ryan Suter, one of several players to endorse Yeo after the season-ending loss to Chicago. The Wild solidified his status in the playoffs with a seven-game victory over Colorado in the first round when the Avalanche led 2-0 and 3-2 in the series. They gave the Blackhawks a fight, too, until falling in six games. The late-season surge, and Yeos impressive strategic decisions both rounds of the playoffs, gave Fletcher the faith that he had the right man for the job. "I am very excited to continue to coach the Minnesota Wild and pursue a Stanley Cup for the State of Hockey," Yeo said. "Our fan support has been amazing and it went to a new level during the playoffs this season. We are all motivated to reward them."
