AJ Preller is a key part for this decade of Padres baseball. But you can't ignore his flaws.
ex. Signing Xander Bogaerts while you have the best hitter of this generation on the roster not under future control was idiotic.
He should have been working to keep Soto once he hit FA
@kwm82 His season high in home runs was 33. That season he was a 1.0 WAR player.
The Red Sox valued him at half of what the Padres did. Tells you all you need to know.
Mason Miller is likely to remain with the Padres past the trade deadline, per @dennistlin.
AJ Preller has continued to signal to rival executives that he hopes to be in a position to buy at the deadline.
@winecardsstonks The only good thing that's a result of the Xander contract was the two platinum gloves for Tatís in right field. And you don't need Xander for that either.
@winecardsstonks The signing didn't make sense regardless. He was a 1 WAR player in his best season and has never gone over 33 home runs in his career.
You don't pay that big of a contract to a guy whose only declining and getting older.
@Sean_in_Socal Why couldn't we have done so? Soto never wanted to leave and without the Machado and Bogaerts contracts I could have seen it happening.
"Move on" this franchise blew the Padres only chances to win a World Series in this era. What the hell do you mean "move on?"
@MatthewxRamirez@Smqr1976 I didn't say that. I said that would have happened (reports have been made that Judge to SD would have been vetoed by the MLB).
When did Soto decline the Padres?
Would rather not give Manny and Bogey contracts then. https://t.co/BNzzIXHHF3
