Ben Fadden was the first fan to go live on Sunday following the massive trade made by the San Diego Padres and Oakland Athletics. Sean Manaea is heading to San Diego and A.J. Preller didn't even have to give up a top ten prospect for the deal to happen! There are many effects of this trade that are discussed in this episode including where the Padres payroll stands after the move, what acquisition could come next, if MacKenzie Gore is expendable or not, and Manaea's contract situation. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GAGLIONE BROS Visit gaglionebros.com to view their entire menu and find their two location's phone numbers/addresses!

Also, he talks about Manny Machado and Fernando Tatis Jr. being ranked higher than Nolan Arenado on MLBN's Top 100 players right now list before getting into how great of a deal this would have been for the Padres if it could have happened.
