ESPN's Buster Olney reports that the San Diego Padres "are moving closer" to hiring Jed Hoyer, the Red Sox' assistant general manager, as their GM.

The 35-year-old Hoyer would replace Kevin Towers, who is out after 14 years leading San Diego's front office. A native New Englander, Hoyer was briefly named co-general manager of the Red Sox, along with Ben Cherington, after Theo Epstein left the club on Halloween 2005 following a contract dispute. Epstein returned less than three months later.
