chw42 Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Hahn should call up Rizzo and trade for Hosmer. He's right up our alley. 1B who hits lots of grounders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RF Soto 4. 3B Machado 5. 1B Bell 6. LF Profar 7. DH Voit 8. C Nola 9. CF Grisham That is one very poor defensive team. Sure can hit, tho.

Rowand44 Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 I know not all of Preller's moves have worked out but man, I respect the hell out of the way he does business. Good for the Padres. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just saying how San Diego's offense looked bad yesterday, but now they just added Soto, Bell, and Tatis will come off the IL soon. Taking live BP starting this Thursday and likely starts minor league assignment late next week. Interestingly, Padres and Dodgers match up again this weekend. Phillies and Cards pushing but this will be tough to overcome. Funny thing is that Hosmer gets a huge salary cut down to $13+ million from $21 (player option to decline) next year and just lost his job to Josh Bell, another lefty. Bob Melvin has his work cut out for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But interestingly the padres org ranking fell into the backhalf of the league. But they still were very top heavy, and had a very good draft last year in Jackson Merrill and James Wood ( they get free draft picks because owners like JR would rather have a less competitive team than share revenue). But they fill up their tanks pretty quickly. Still have Merrill too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep time to get more talent into the organization since they won’t have money to spend. Let some other team wonder where Gio’s stuff went.

Yes I understand that, I just didn’t know how many of them were in their top ten. I figured a couple but didn’t realize all four. Thanks though I appreciate everyone responding, I am doing this at work and came over here once the deal was announced. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
