@SPChrisHatfield Only thing on here that surprised me is Baldwin. Missed basically all of 2019 with an injury. 53 games in Salem the year before. Now one of 4 catchers in camp despite below-average defense. Very strange imo.

In 2019, Padres had the 4th lowest payroll. With Machado's salary bumping up by $18M and about $27M for Betts (plus some salary relief for Myers), they'd be closer to middle of the pack. They were 14th in attendance last year. They get about $50M in local tv $$$ (sounds like a lot, but other teams are really getting much more like the Rays @ $82M). Can they afford Betts and eating some of Myers' salary? IDK. The vast majority of their team are on very cheap contracts. Maybe they can have a few high paid guys and just fill in the rest of the roster with their strong farm?

Machado used a crowbar.

Erod and JBJ packaged up and let’s move on .

They should have non tendered him and signed Billy Hamilton instead. -
Honestly, we don't actually know what they are up to right now.

Non roster invitees to ST: Durran - Exciting prospect. Anyone think he could rise similar to Ellsbury in 07? Mata - Not sure his pitching is quite there yet, but an outside chance he appears in 2020. Houk - I think he winds up in BOS pitching out of the pen this year. Baldwin - Sox have next to nothing for C prospects, so we're only seeing him because they need bodies. Rule V eligible next year. Castillo - considering the salary limitations, he's stuck in PAW this year. Marco - Most likely up and down this year, but will he reach his potential? He should have been the opening day 2b. Joseph - Lots of pop and has MLB experience with PHI. Most likely just a fill in though. Ockimey Chance at 1b platoon? Hildenberger - He'll be in the BOS bullpen at some point this year. Experience in MINN. Brian Johnson - The epitome of "meh" Poyner - Bloom loves his LHP relievers. McGrath - LHP starter who was lights out in Portland last year. Maybe a spot start or two, but has a ceiling of a #5.

Sure, but seems like the Padres have a tight checkbook.

Yuck. Just rip the bandaid off.

I woke up this AM and am happy that Mookie is still on the Red Sox. I think I'd do the trade if the Padres ate a majority of Myers' salary. Doesn't seem like the Padres want to do that.

Listened To Pedey on WEEI annmnnnnnd

I do think he'd rather play. His body just isn't up for it. I always assumed that his career would be cut short or severely hampered because how he played on the field (play hard, but sometimes do stupid s*** like dive headfirst into 1b). -
The article suggested Myers, Grisham, Croneworth, Campusano and one of either Quantrill, Luchessi or Michael Baez, and a competitive balance draft pick

I met my wife when I was 27. Feel free to joke about my love life for the first 26 years.

Maybe that’s why no trade seems close.
-
Yuck

Espinoza as a throw in.

What if it don’t?

Harmony forgot to mention significant amount of prospect talent

He’s just a dumb baseball player. They aren’t known for their smarts. -
