...And head to the 3rdinals for seemingly very little other than $.  Seems like the Pads salary dump is for real, and they aren't necessarily getting prospy value in return, at least in this case.

I don't know how his pro career is going to turn out, but he was one hell of a player in college.  He hit .480 in his senior year at Clemson. 
Crazy Joe McCluskey was fucking nuts.  It's why they called him Crazy Joe.

I just feel comforted knowing there's a white guy out there named Khalil.

Reggie Willits appreciates this sentiment.
I believe there ought to be a constitutional amendment outlawing AstroTurf and the designated hitter. I believe in the sweet spot, soft-core pornography, opening your presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve and I believe in long, slow, deep, torture of Bud Selig.

He's Ba'hai, though not sure how that affected his naming.

We have some friends back home in SD that just named their son Khalil (he's black, so he shouldn't get teased as much as Khalil Greene probably did).  They're gonna be pissed about this.  Fantastic SS.
I say smorgasbord!
