Jose Espada: Leaves for NPB
Espada signed with the Tokyo-Yakult Swallows of the NPB on Sunday.
Espada made one major-league appearance with the Padres last season, striking out two batters and walking two in one inning of work. The 26-year-old righty will now look to make a name for himself in Japan after putting up a 2.92 ERA and 1.30 WHIP through 83.1 frames between Double-A and Triple-A.

Jose Espada: Non-tendered off roster
Espada was non-tendered Friday by the Padres, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
Espada registered an impressive 2.81 ERA with 110 strikeouts over 83.1 innings this past season between Double-A San Antonio and Triple-A El Paso. He also worked a scoreless inning of relief in his Sept. 24 major-league debut. The 26-year-old right-hander has some command issues to iron out, but he should draw interest from other organizations in free agency.
