    The Padres offense creates some problems for them, and prevented them from catching up to Colorado on Monday.Lucchesi makes mistakes
    Joey Lucchesi didn’t necessarily look like he didn’t have it against the Colorado Rockies, as much as he looked inconsistent. While he was mowing through some hitters, he’d make mistakes and leave meatballs out over the plate to others.“Joey Fuego” gave up 2 solo HRs to Ian Desmond and Nolan Arenado, as well as a couple of doubles, an

    Giants, Padres Made Offers To Marcus Stroman During Free Agency
    When right-hander Marcus Stroman opted out of the final year and $21MM of his deal with the Cubs over the winter to test free agency, he kicked off a relatively quiet foray into the open market for a pitcher of his caliber. The veteran only received publicly-known interest from the Royals prior to him landing a two-year deal with the Yankees that guaranteed him $37MM.
    At the time of Stroman’s agreement in the Yankees, Jon Heyman of the New York Post indicated that a handful of other teams

    2023 ended up being Juan Soto’s final year in San Diego, as the Padres swapped the star outfielder to the Yankees in a blockbuster deal last December.  Given the Padres’ inconsistent play during their disappointing 82-80 season, there was plenty of trade buzz surrounding Soto during the year, and a trade began to look like more of a reality once reports filtered out after the season that San Diego was looking to reduce payroll.
    However, some attempts were made to keep Soto in So
