@TooMuchMortons_ 141 wRC+ since July 1st I think Jackson Merrill will be just fine. Whatever his was doing at the start of the season I hope it's behind him and we never see that again.
Why would Bendar be worth $13M more than Morejon?
Morejon
2.83 ERA
2.37 FIP
86 IP
107 K
2.8 fWAR
Bednar
2.47 ERA
2.61 FIP
69.1 IP
76K
1.9 fWAR
If you do a larger sample size of say last 3 years there's far more seperation in Morejon's favor
@BaseballWRLD_ Morejon and Bednar are the top relivers but why is Bendar worth $13M more?

You don't know anything about baseball if you don't think he's one of the best relivers in baseball. These numbers are not far off from what Morejon has done in the same time period.
@BaseballWRLD_ Aside from the roof ball in game 1 Morejon had only given 1 HR all year on his sinker and of course Contreras hits the game winning HR off his sinker and to make things worse Salas called for the changeup and Morejon shook him off for the sinker.
@Masterflip_ The question that was asked if there will ever be a day when you consider trading Tatis or Machado. AJ Preller response was NO and they will always be Padres. AJ preller has also said it multiple times in the past as well.
Padres RHP Kannon Kemp was the most interesting arm in the first game today. 6-5/225 pounds. Short arm action, quick arm. Delivery needs work but itโs loud stuff. FB 95-99, CH 89-90, SL 87-90, SW 82-84.
