The Padres misplaced one other one in all their stars to the Dodgers this morning
So if it wasn’t unhealthy sufficient that Roki Sasaki—the Padres white whale this offseason—signed with the Dodgers just a few days in the past, how about Tanner Scott selecting them?

The one man who dominated Shohei Ohtani now joins him to pitch towards San Diego’s lineup. This can be enjoyable to observe.
Nonetheless as we sit right here on this Sunday morning the Padres haven’t signed or traded for a Main League participant. One win away from beating the World Sequence champions and that is how they’ve they reacted.
In all equity, the offseason isn’t over and the offseason for A.J. Preller doesn’t finish in February. It ends when the primary pitch on Opening Day is thrown.
We’ve seen him make important late strikes so we might really feel a complete lot higher about this workforce in just a few months however proper now this appears like we’re in a nasty dream.
Fan favourite Blake Snell indicators with the Dodgers. Sasaki. Scott. Who’s subsequent? Jurickson Profar? (I’m kidding. It’s not taking place. Their outfield is full however we’re down unhealthy proper now)
The Dodgers can be $130+ million over the Aggressive Steadiness Tax threshold. A lot for stability.
Props to them for spending the cash they’ve however on the similar time, shouldn’t MLB step in and put a cap when a workforce goes aggressively over the edge. There are Common Managers within the league that wish to spend however actually don’t have this cash to take action. They’re supposed to take a look at the Dodgers and assume all that is fantastic and dandy?
One other unhappy day within the offseason for Padres followers.
