On today’s episode of the Talking Friars podcast/YouTube show, I was joined by XTRA 1360’s Jon Schaeffer to discuss the following topics regarding the San Diego Padres: A.J. Pollock traded from the Los Angeles Dodgers. Does Andrew Friedman now go make a run at Bryan Reynolds? Why A.J. Preller should actually be given a good grade this offseason C.J. Abrams is going to make the roster but it isn’t just because of his play Why didn’t the Padres start giving Abrams reps in the outfield before this year? Is Bryan Reynolds worth giving up so much talent? Odds of Preller getting rid of Eric Hosmer by the trade deadline Why fans should overreact more to Blake Snell’s bad first outing than Mike Clevinger’s How the Padres should construct their rotation When the Padres might think about giving the closer’s job to Dinelson Lamet Padres 2022 over-under game (team wins this year, innings pitched for Snell, outfield combined home runs, and games played for Fernando Tatis Jr.) Visit gaglionebros.com to view their entire menu!
