cash had lost his starting job with the expos in 1979, but still hit for high average as a pinch hitter and backup at second until he regained the starting spot in september.  with the padres in 1980, he was named the starting second baseman but hit just .227 on the season.  the padres released him when the season ended, and he never played in the big leagues again.
