    Looks like the deal is officially agreed upon, just pending the physical.

    Acceptable price. Good deal for San Diego and good deal for Shields.

    I'm excited!!

    This team has shades of 98 written all over it!

    If we can get Hamels even if we have to give up Cashner, thst will make our offseason even better!

    And four weeks later nobody even speaks about it.

    I'm not holding my breath for Hamels, not with what Amaro is apparently demanding combined with the salary.

    But, I'm not writing off the possibility either after this offseason thus far.

    James Shields was traded by Tampa Bay for Wil Myers (and others) and now they're teammates.

    Relax guy.

    Nobody is calling this current version of the Padres a "dream team"

    However, we are definitely going to be in contention this year in a deep NL West.

    Our rotation as it is, is pretty deep with Shields, Ross, Cashner and Kennedy. Sure its not headlined by Kershaw/Greinke or even Scherzer/Strasburg, but it is good enough to win the WC or division.

    We just need a shortstop.

    Take it from a fan of one of the other dozen teams looking for a shortstop. There are no good ones out there.

    2015 Padres = 2011 Eagles. Rock Star GM and Bitch Boy Kemp can both go fuck themselves.

    Mofo with the brilliant insight. I hadn't realized the Padres were out of the race in spite of major offseason push to contend until he pointed it out.

    Re: Padres sign James Shields

    It's funny that the message from PFF and all the lemmings was "forget the haters" when your team made their offseason push to contend. As if they never mocked the Dodgers when they went on their own questionable spending sprees.

    He's probably now begging Preller to break the bank to sign Greinke in the offseason, just 3 years after he called Greinke an "overpaid, overhyped, dumb as a stump mental case pitcher". Lemming.
