    OT: Padres Look Good - Padres Discussion

    Im shocked at how good the young pitching looks. To have a couple young guys like Margevicius and Strahm that were not even listed in the Padres top 30 prospects is strange. You always hear how loaded our farm system is but if we are pulling guys up that are not even ranked and they are this good? I cant imagine how bright the future is for our top prospects.

    Manny has really helped us on D. Obvsiously you want him to mash the ball but his defense has saved us. Hustling out that grounder yesterday was huge.

    Id love to swing a deal for Kluber. He is cheap over the next 3 years. I was sort of wondering if Margevicius was on the mound simply to showcase for a trade.

      Agreed. I think Reyes could also put up 40 HRs. Hopefully he can get better patience at the dish and draw more walks while striking out less. He could be a 50 HR guy if given the ABs. Joey Gallo type.

      I love the Kinsler signing. Garcia is a really solid utility bat as well. I think Margot could finally put together a solid hitting season. He looks different this year. I could see this team being top 5 in SB's this year as well.

        Haven't paid a lot of attention to baseball the last couple of years. Saw Paddack pitch the other day though and he looked impressive. Manny got his first HR yesterday.

          Manny's shot was a rocket. We could use another SP. Sounds like we are or were in discussions with Dallas Keuchel.

            Since I am not local I have just been going off of the free preview on DirecTV or highlights. Hope to watch a little more ball this year though.

                Keuchel isn't signed yet? He must be asking crazy money. He would definitely help the Padres if they want to afford him.

                    Keuchel would be a nice pick up. I heard Stroman was a possibility. Also a good pick up. Kluber with his affordable contract would be nice. I wonder if the Padres are showcasing these young guys who are not even ranked in their top 30 prospects.

                    Margevicius and Avila come to mind. I had seriously never even heard of these 2 and all of a sudden they are pitching in the big leagues for us.

                      LOL, thats been happening the past two seasons. We bring up a SS the past two seasons and they stay for a while and havent seen either since.

                      Id love to pick up Kluber or Keuchel but Keuchel not being signed yet must mean he wants huge money. He is too good to not be on a team.

                      I dont want Kimbrell as was mentioned today that he isnt signed.

                      The Pads are looking good but can use some starting pitching. I expect the young guys to improve but its a matter if they ant to win this year. Dont sacrafice too much of the future for this year. We know Perdomo stinks and isnt getting better but i liked Lamat's future . Just need his arm to be 100%.

                        I actually ordered MLBtv this year. They look good thus far. They really need to get another SP who can pitch longer then 5 innings into a game. I am sure AJ will bring in a veteran sooner rather then later. Should be a fun season!!
