Talking Friars: A San Diego Padres podcast

According to Kevin Acee of the San Diego Union Tribune, the deadline Manny Machado set for extension talks with the Padres has passed. San Diego reportedly made one offer to Machado before the deadline (February 16), which was to add an additional five years ($21 million AAV) on his current five years and $150 million left on his deal after this season. This doesn't seem like good news for Padres fans. #Padres #MLB #Baseball Subscribe for free year round Padres content: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgJHFZPJpuyVyG_skyD0F6w?sub_confirmation=1 Check out my MLB YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@BaseballStruck Get $20 off your first SeatGeek order using the code "TALKINGFRIARS" https://seatgeek.onelink.me/RrnK/teamseatgeek If you wish to support Talking Friars, please give a super chat during live streams or give a super thanks by hitting the "$ Thanks" button on videos!

Manny Machado spoke to reporters this morning in Peoria and confirmed that he will be opting out of his contract at the end of the 2023 season. He’s declining to comment on if negotiations are ongoing with the organization so how should fans feel right now? Plus, MLB commissioner Rob Manfred told USA Today’s Bob Nightengale this week that the San Diego Padres are assured to lose money this season despite being expected to bring in more revenue than they have in any season in franchise history. Why would they lose money and should we believe Manfred? #Padres #MLB #Baseball Subscribe for free year round Padres content: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgJHFZPJpuyVyG_skyD0F6w?sub_confirmation=1 Check out my MLB YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@BaseballStruck Get $20 off your first SeatGeek order using the code "TALKINGFRIARS" https://seatgeek.onelink.me/RrnK/teamseatgeek If you wish to support Talking Friars, please give a super chat during live streams or give a super thanks by hitting the "$ Thanks" button on videos!

According to Robert Murray, the San Diego Padres are adding Cole Hamels on a minor league deal.

Usually San Diego Padres fans are used to seeing players battle it out during Spring Training for starting spots but this team is so good that there aren’t any starting spots up for grabs (other than right field for the first 20 games because Fernando Tatis Jr. is suspended to start the year). Some then wouldn’t think there are interesting questions to be answered in camp but that’s not the case. Is Luis Campusano going to make progress towards earning the starting catcher job? How will Tatis look during his first MLB action since 2021? Is Matt Carpenter going to get outfield playing time? Which depth starting pitchers will stand out from the rest? These are just some of the questions that will be answered during Spring Training. #Padres #MLB #Baseball Subscribe for free year round Padres content: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgJHFZPJpuyVyG_skyD0F6w?sub_confirmation=1 Check out my MLB YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@BaseballStruck Get $20 off your first SeatGeek order using the code "TALKINGFRIARS" https://seatgeek.onelink.me/RrnK/teamseatgeek If you wish to support Talking Friars, please give a super chat during live streams or give a super thanks by hitting the "$ Thanks" button on videos!

San Diego Padres pitchers and catchers who are participating in the World Baseball Classic are reporting to Spring Training today so the offseason is unofficially over. Plenty of things could happen between now and Opening Day but I’m going to try to predict the 26-man roster for the first time this year.

Yu Darvish was extended by the San Diego Padres yesterday and had his press conference today with President of Baseball Operations A.J. Preller at Petco Park. Coming away from the presser it was clear that this extension got done because Darvish wanted to be here and the Padres wanted him here. The organization also continues to value certain things I say that because this seems to be the same thought process in a potential extension with Manny Machado. Preller told the media Machado has “expressed an interest in being here” and San Diego in turn has “expressed an interest in him being here”. That should lead to an extension, right? We can only hope. On the latest episode of Talking Friars, I give my thoughts on all that went on today. Do you think a Machado extension will occur? #Padres #MLB #Baseball Subscribe for free year round Padres content: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgJHFZPJpuyVyG_skyD0F6w?sub_confirmation=1 Check out my MLB YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@BaseballStruck Get $20 off your first SeatGeek order using the code "TALKINGFRIARS" https://seatgeek.onelink.me/RrnK/teamseatgeek If you wish to support Talking Friars, please give a super chat during live streams or give a super thanks by hitting the "$ Thanks" button on videos!

According to MLB.com's AJ Cassavell, the San Diego Padres and Yu Darvish have agreed to an extension through the 2028 season. So this is essentially a five-year deal tacked on to the one season remaining on his contract.

Today was a day San Diego Padres fans have been waiting for for a long time. 150,000 tickets were claimed by the Friar Faithful within days of tickets being made available so we knew it was going to be packed.

One of the biggest questions heading into Spring Training in a couple weeks around the San Diego Padres is whether or not they’ll be able to make progress with Manny Machado and/or Juan Soto on contract extensions. A.J. Preller discussed the latest on that with Buster Olney on “Baseball Tonight” earlier today, saying that discussions will begin here in the next couple weeks/months. What are the chances of an extension getting done?

How would you rate the performance of Bob Melvin? What is your confidence level in Fernando Tatis Jr. making a successful return in 2023? Will the Padres keep Manny Machado beyond this season?

Colorado Rockies owner Dick Monfort told the Denver Post over the weekend that he doesn’t agree with “what the Padres are doing” despite his fans “probably” agreeing with it. Monfort added San Diego and other clubs “have spent a lot of money” which has put “a lot of pressure” on the Rockies organization. Monfort also made sure to mention that San Diego’s roster has some holes. Let’s be honest—he should be the last one talking about other team’s holes. #Padres #MLB #Rockies Subscribe for free year round Padres content: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgJHFZPJpuyVyG_skyD0F6w?sub_confirmation=1 Check out my MLB YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@BaseballStruck If you wish to support Talking Friars, please give a super chat during live streams or give a super thanks by hitting the "$ Thanks" button on videos!

Credit to the San Diego Union Tribune's Kevin Acee and Annie Heilbrunn for their great piece this morning on Fernando Tatis Jr.'s offseason. He's been working out with Joe Musgrove and other Padres teammates in the pool to get ready for all of the challenges he will face during the 2023 season.

The Athletic’s Dennis Lin put out another mailbag this week with some interesting tidbits. He says the San Diego Padres viewed losing Christian Vazquez was one of the bigger disappointments of the offseason. What could’ve that meant for Luis Campusano? Plus, some team officials have acknowledged that bringing back Juan Soto long term may be difficult. What does this mean for the Padres over the course of the next couple seasons? Should they trade him if it’s clear he isn’t going to sign an extension?

Bob Nightengale came out with a report earlier this month that the San Diego Padres plan to be “all in” on Shohei Ohtani next offseason but he was the only one to report that at the time. But another writer—Dennis Lin, who knows the Padres better than Nightengale—reported yesterday that the Padres will definitely be in on the Los Angeles Angels superstar. Thus, it definitely seems like Ohtani is going to be discussed inside the Padres front offices. But what level of interest will San Diego have in Ohtani in terms of money? The franchise does intend to keep Manny Machado beyond 2023 and you’d think they’re going to make an effort to either extend Juan Soto or bring him back when he’s a free agent as well. Plus, a move in MLB was made this week that lowers the chances of Ha-Seong Kim being dealt. And last but not least, would it be smart for the Padres to use a six-man rotation?

It seemed like former San Diego Padres outfielder Jurickson Profar was set to receive a four or five-year contract before the offseason started but he is still sitting unsigned. General manager A.J. Preller has only made some minor depth signings in the outfield so is there room for a bigger move to bring back a fan favorite? Plus, a Boston Red Sox beat writer is projecting that Ha-Seong Kim will be their starting shortstop. Is a trade that likely? #Padres #MLB #RedSox Subscribe for free year round Padres content: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgJHFZPJpuyVyG_skyD0F6w?sub_confirmation=1 Check out my MLB YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@BaseballStruck If you wish to support Talking Friars, please give a super chat during live streams or give a super thanks by hitting the "$ Thanks" button on videos!

The San Diego Padres could be set in their starting rotation but there’s still room to improve if the opportunity presents itself. Johnny Cueto just signed with the Miami Marlins, which leaves Michael Wacha as arguably the best remaining free agent starter on the market. In other words, there aren’t any great starters left. But what about the trade market?

The San Diego Padres number one priority going into this offseason was to acquire starting pitching and you could make the case they’ve done that with the additions of Seth Lugo, Wilmer Font, Brett Honeywell Jr., and Julio Teheran. With that said, you could also make the case that San Diego could use one more. If they don’t land Johnny Cueto, does it need to be through free agency though when there are more worthwhile free agent outfielders out there?

Manny Machado is the best third baseman in baseball and he is going to be looking to be paid like it at the end of 2023 if he opts out of the remaining five years left on the contract he signed back in 2019 with the San Diego Padres. Us fans hope he doesn’t get to free agency but what will Peter Seidler have to pay Machado for that not to happen? Plus, there’s a positive clue out on social media involving Machado that should give fans faith that the Padres will ultimately get a deal done. #Padres #MLB #Baseball Subscribe for free year round Padres content: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgJHFZPJpuyVyG_skyD0F6w?sub_confirmation=1 Check out my MLB YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@BaseballStruck If you wish to support Talking Friars, please give a super chat during live streams or give a super thanks by hitting the "$ Thanks" button on videos!

New San Diego Padres shortstop Xander Bogaerts won the World Series with the Boston Red Sox in 2018 against the Los Angeles Dodgers. He had some pretty good talent around him—Mookie Betts, Rafael Devers and J.D. Martinez just to name a few—but he might have more talent around him this season in the brown and gold.

We’re almost done with 2022 so it’s a great time to look back on everything that happened involving our San Diego Padres this year. There was a lockout and then there wasn’t. Fernando Tatis Jr. missed the entire season. There was an Opening Day trade that paved the way for A.J. Preller to acquire Josh Hader. Manny Machado had a MVP-caliber season. Juan Soto and Xander Bogaerts are Padres. Oh, and did you hear about the Padres slaying the dragon?

The San Diego Padres have had a successful offseason...so far. They’ve added to the pitching staff, found someone who can be this year’s version of Brandon Drury or Wil Myers at a cheaper price and acquired some depth at the catching position. With that said, they still need to go get another starting caliber outfielder who can play at least until Fernando Tatis Jr. returns. Who could that be?

Jon Heyman reported yesterday that the San Diego Padres “anticipate” Manny Machado to exercise his opt-out after the 2023 season. In this episode, Ben Fadden explains why Padres fans shouldn’t be worried about the potential of him leaving and tries to determine how big of an offer it would take to keep Manny in the brown and gold. Plus, Ken Rosenthal reported today that Justin Turner is a possibility at DH. Would that be a smart move? #Padres #MLB #Baseball Subscribe for free year round Padres content: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgJHFZPJpuyVyG_skyD0F6w?sub_confirmation=1 Check out my MLB YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@BaseballStruck If you wish to support Talking Friars, please give a super chat during live streams or give a super thanks by hitting the "$ Thanks" button on videos!

Jim Callis said this morning “don’t be shocked” if the Atlanta Braves trade Max Fried this winter. We know the San Diego Padres need another big starter so could a trade happen between the two clubs?

We knew the San Diego Padres were interested in adding Kodai Senga to the starting rotation but that won’t be happening, as he’s headed to the New York Mets. If it was Opening Day, the rotation would include Yu Darvish, Blake Snell, Joe Musgrove, Nick Martinez and Julio Teheran. The good news though is it’s not Opening Day. Who are the remaining targets for A.J. Preller in the starting pitching market to round out the rotation? #Padres #MLB #Baseball YOUTUBE Subscribe to the Talking Friars YouTube page for free year round Padres content: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgJHFZPJpuyVyG_skyD0F6w?sub_confirmation=1 SUPPORT THE CHANNEL If you wish to support Talking Friars, please give a super chat during live streams or give a super thanks by hitting the "$ Thanks" button on videos!

The San Diego Padres aren’t messing around. They reportedly offered $340+ million contracts to two star players—Trea Turner and Aaron Judge—and are interested in some of the other top free agents. In this episode, Ben Fadden goes over the sequence of events that led to Judge signing back with New York, talk about what the Padres being in on Judge means for them the rest of the offseason and how they can still have a successful offseason even after losing out on two guys they really wanted. #Padres #MLB #Baseball YOUTUBE Subscribe to the Talking Friars YouTube page for free year round Padres content: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgJHFZPJpuyVyG_skyD0F6w?sub_confirmation=1 SUPPORT THE CHANNEL If you wish to support Talking Friars, please give a super chat during live streams or give a super thanks by hitting the "$ Thanks" button on videos!

Hello from the Winter Meetings! We know the San Diego Padres offered Trea Turner way more than $300 million so the conversation today in San Diego has been about if A.J. Preller will use that money on one of the other big name free agents. Plus, there’s a report out that the Padres aren’t interested in the shortstop market any longer now that Turner is off the board. Should we really believe that?

Hello from the MLB Winter Meetings in San Diego! One of the San Diego Padres top targets, Trea Turner, is off the board so now the focus shifts to Xander Bogaerts, who the Padres have met with in person according to Kevin Acee. Will they end up getting him? Plus, the Padres have also started expressing interest in first baseman and outfielders such as Michael Brantley and Trey Mancini. Should they go that route instead of spending big on a shortstop?

Things are heating up! Dennis Lin has reported the San Diego Padres have met with Trea Turner twice in person ahead of next week’s MLB Winter Meetings so they’re definitely interested.

A.J. Preller likely wishes he hadn’t traded Trea Turner in 2015 in the Wil Myers deal but it appears he’s trying to get the infielder back, according to Ken Rosenthal. Imagine what a lineup with Turner, Manny Machado, Juan Soto, Jake Cronenworth and Fernando Tatis Jr. could do! Plus, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts is comparing their loss to the Padres in the NLDS to their 2017 World Series loss to the Houston Astros.

Brett Stang is a big Padres fan who made it on the Bally Sports San Diego broadcast this year while he was waving a Padres flag.
