Well put from ESPN.com's Rumblings:
Blockquoted paragraph
Padilla
• Beware the Padilla: Meanwhile, it’s funny how you’re not hearing the same glowing reviews on Vicente Padilla, another talented arm who is almost certain to become a free agent once the Rangers determine once and for all that they can’t deal him. But for a guy whose stuff is still good, it’s astounding how terrified teams seem to be by the rest of Padilla’s loose-cannon act.
“Here’s a team [Texas] that needs pitching, and they let a guy like that go?” said one NL executive. “What’s that tell you?”
“They’re tied in the wild card, and nobody has enough pitching, and they owe the guy money, and they still didn’t want him around?” wondered another NL exec. “It just makes you wonder: How bad was it?”

He'll never get another guaranteed deal.
He’s toxic now.

Now?
He was about as Toxic when we signed him. None of the things Padilla is doing are new, and there are reasons Phillie and Arizona was happy to dump him despite his arm. I was surprised we signed him long term. He is one of those guys who should always be on a one year contract.
