Wow I wonder if/what SD would have done to get Chapman/BP from Cincy if they're willing to eat Upton's contract...

Forget all the haters.
I'm loving every move AJ Preller is making. As a lifelong Padres' fan, I'm just happy to see my team spend $$$ to try to win vs. spend as little as possible and try to put the "best" product out on the field.
I wonder if we will see Melvin Upton play any short.
I doubt Melvin plays anything in the infield. He'll likely just be an expensive 4th OFer over the life of his contract. The only way I see him getting starting time is either through injury or a combination of them not getting his brother extended and Renfroe not panning out. Although I suppose Myers to 1B and benching Alonso isn't out of the question.
Rumor is Preller's on the phones looking for a SS right now.
I love AJ Preller's fantasy sports like approach to being our gm. My shortstop isn't good enough. Let's go get one. My closer is 38 and has velocity issues, let's go get the best one in the business.
