## Resource

The Padres’ eight-game skid has them five games back from a playoff spot, forcing GMs to weigh a brutal trade deadline decision: sell or stay the course. After a brief surge—sweeping Atlanta and beating the Dodgers—they’ve cratered to 43-45. With a weak farm system and financial limits, selling key pieces may be their only path forward. Jason Adam (shoulder strain), Gavin Sheets (club control), Adrian Morejon (free agent), Michael King (player option), and even Tatis Jr. (down year, massive contract) are all on the radar. But the real steal? Mason Miller—a top-tier reliever under team control for three more years—could be the most impactful trade target.
