With the San Diego Padres expected to lose multiple starting pitchers this offseason, the team has some work to do in replacing them. The majority of their staff from last season is on the open market, and they have already lost Nick Martinez to the Cincinnati Reds.
Padres president of baseball operations A.J. Preller knows that he has some work to do, and will need to figure out a way to duplicate the production from a year ago. But what better way to do that than by re-signing one of the best pitchers available.
MLB insider Mark Feinsand of MLB.com has linked the Padres with free agent left-hander Blake Snell. He believes that a reunion could happen, despite all the reporting that says Snell is as good as gone.
