last year dodgers beat out the padres for scherzer. this year the padres beat out the Lad's on Soto. difference being they have him for 2 more years at least

[Mr KLC]

This is Preller's last stand. if they don't win it in at least one of the next 3 postseasons, HE GONE!!!

He can build up the farm system again the next few years.

I don't think he really had a choice, couldn't let the Dodgers get him.

Padres also have some nice bullpen arms coming back from injury soon...Pomeranz the biggest one.

team jacked up, now croney with a bomb. extra pt makes it 7-3 friars

[SBR_Guest_Pro]

Us San Diegans are truly excited about the Padres for the first time in 25 years

They need a bodyguard nanny around Tatis Jr all year around so he doesn't get himself injured again

[pologq]

world series or bust for them. pressure is on.

[JAKEPEAVY21]

I wonder what the chances are of the Padres extending Soto?

I'd say very slim given that they already have two $300 million dollar contracts on the books(Machado and Tatis)...hard to fathom adding another 400-500 million contract.

[Mr KLC]

It will take a team with top flight pitching to beat this lineup, if healthy, in the playoffs.

The Dodgers, Braves, Mets, padres and even the Cardinals are all very good. I wouldn't be surprised if any of those teams beat each other and went to the World Series. Should be a pretty epic playoffs.

this will be an interesting end of summer and fall
