another Lilleberg penalty

what exactly does he bring to the team other than size and hitting since he seems to be on the ice for a lot of goals against and takes an inordinate number of penalties? what am I missing?

around August he was well on pace to break the record (26 in 104 games) but his GIDPs really slowed late in the year to only five in last 50

Just read the article, it mentions it as one of a myriad of factors - the "in part" was a small part. Seemed more of an overall lifestyle/health choice.

Which is not to say that bettor threats aren't a problem and will end up in something worse. Anyway, here's the relevant part:
Shildt, 57, said he began thinking in late August about the possibility of retiring. The now-former manager said that during the past season he experienced, among other things, poor sleep, chest pains, hair loss and, in an age of pervasive sports gambling, even death threats from strangers. He added that after the Padres’ season-ending loss to the Chicago Cubs in the National League Wild Card Series, he told Preller he wanted to head home for a week to recharge and reflect. According to Shildt, Preller — who is scheduled to address reporters via videoconference Tuesday — did not react with surprise. The general manager, Shildt said, could tell he was “worn down.”
