Summary
Every game for the Padres is a must-win game ahead of the trade deadline, and right now they're looking like buyers. Darren Smith and Marty Caswell welcome in The Athletic's Dennis Lin to break down the upcoming MLB trade deadline, why A.J. Preller really has no untouchable players, and if he's angling to have have any of his high-contract players waive their no-trade clauses. Lin discusses the uncertainty of the pending Padres sale and who from the organization has been in touch with Jose E. Feliciano and Kwanza Jones when it comes to adding payroll at the deadline. The three discuss the idea of buying and selling at the deadline, what it means for Adrian Morejon, the promotion of Ethan Salas and why Fernando Tatis may not be untouchable in the future. Marty and Darren then jump into the comments from Michael King on the pressure the Padres are playing with each game, the team's little margin for error and Manny Machado's comments on negative coverage amid their underwhelming season. Marty updates the latest from reliever Jason Adam on his return timeline and how it could affect an already taxed Padres bullpen.
