Cassandra Reed+FollowPadres Snag Qrey Lott—Steal of the Offseason?Friar Faithful, have you heard? The Padres just signed Qrey Lott, a 6'5" outfielder who was the Panhandle Conference Player of the Year.

Andrea Castillo+FollowPadres Eye 'Pop-Time King' Korey LeeLooks like the Friars are eyeing a fresh face behind the dish—Korey Lee, the White Sox catcher with the best pop-time in the league. With Maldy and Diaz struggling both at the plate and in the field, Lee’s rocket arm could be a game-changer. Ironically, both Lee and Campusano have started seasons with long hitless streaks, but Lee’s minor league numbers and defensive chops make him an intriguing trade target.

terrysharon+FollowFriars Eye Big Moves to Outpace GiantsX-Man wants the Friar Faithful to get ready for another wild trade deadline!

Maria Chavez+FollowPadres' Ace Cease Likely Gone After Season?Tough news for Friar Faithful: it looks like Dylan Cease, the Padres’ big arm, is almost certain to hit free agency this winter. As a Scott Boras client, Cease will likely draw major bids from around the league unless San Diego makes a monster offer soon. With his ERA not matching his strikeout numbers, and with King’s injury not shifting the odds much, insiders like Dennis Lin say Cease is probably out. Do you think Preller should break the bank to keep him? #Sports #Baseball #Padres10Share
Kimberly Moore+FollowBogaerts Back in Lineup—Risk or Reward?Big news, Friar Faithful! After grabbing his hammy twice in a week, X-Man is back at short and batting fifth vs. the Rangers.

Could a change of scenery help him bounce back, or will his recent blowup against the D-backs scare off contenders? This trade battle could shape the NL playoff race! #Sports #Baseball #Padres00Share
jillian59+FollowCould El Bombi Boost the Friars’ Playoff Push?Rumors are heating up that the Padres might make a move for the Rangers’ slugger El Bombi (Adolis García) at the trade deadline. Despite a tough season at the plate, García’s power and playoff pedigree could be just what the Friars need in left field. With San Diego lagging in offensive production from that spot, is this the splash move that could spark a late-season surge? Would a change of scenery help García recapture his 2023 magic? Let’s hear your takes! #Padres #ElBombi #MLBTradeRumors #Sports #Baseball10Share
Cassandra Reed+FollowCould the Padres Nab Buehler from Boston?Rumors are heating up that the Padres might make a play for former Dodgers World Series ace Walker Buehler at the deadline.

If Boston starts a fire sale, Preller could swoop in for a low-cost rental.
