The San Diego Padres could afford to make some moves in the coming weeks, especially if they want to close the gap on the Los Angeles Dodgers.
The San Diego Padres are a step behind the Los Angeles Dodgers, but they could look to close the gap on their rival by swinging a few trades to upgrade their roster.
One place the Padres desperately need to upgrade is the outfield, but there aren’t very many quality outfielders expected to be on the market.
Bleacher Report’s Kerry Miller recently proposed an « outrageous » trade idea that would send Chicago White Sox outfielder Andrew Benintendi to the Padres in exchange for prospect Clark Candiotti.
