Harsh commentary on Pads...


Recommended Posts

The Padres' SB Nation site wanted Nate Smith and Kyle Kubitza for Upton. If Upton cost that much in reality, I'd do that trade in heartbeat.

 

Tough to give up cost-controlled talent for a rental, but yeah that's incredibly fair. Probably favors the Angels.

I at least like that the Padres finally have a GM that's willing to try to build a winner. For the last 15 years, the Padres have had a "build for the future" mentality and that future never ends up coming.

You just have to take chances sometimes. Yeah, this one didn't work out. That sucks. So you rebuild and try again in 2 years.

Hold onto Ross, Cashner and Shields because they're all having a little bit of an off year and they could still compete with that staff next year. Hold onto Myers because if he's healthy he's an all-star corner OF. Hold onto a Kemp because you can't trade him. Hold onto Norris because he is actual offense at a tough position to have a bat.

But trade Justin Upton, Ian Kennedy, Craig Kimbrel and get yourself a good young CF, middle infielder and 1B with power.
