Is this a sign that they're clearing room

either for 2-for-1 trade or to pick someone up in the rule 5 draft?

Or they could want to sign someone

A backup c perhaps? They need roster spots too.

Ah the Rule 5 Draft

The biggest shopping day of the year for the Padres.

It’s like going to Pic N Save on Black Friday.

btw pic n save is no longer
they went bk, changed to macfrugals and bought out by big lots…
just in case you planned to go there to buy me a gift

Not quite

The team doesn’t really need the liability of keeping them rostered all year. If they get one player, is that the biggest shopping day of the year, comparable to Black Friday at Pic N Sav (Big Lots)?

I say no.

The #Padres “have some candidates we’re strongly discussing,” in Thursday’s Rule 5 draft, according to GM Jed Hoyer. It’s likely pitching.

I read somewhere else

That those candidates were gone by the time we picked. No problem, didn’t need them anyway.
