The San Diego Padres have significantly beefed up their bullpen ahead of the trade deadline. He received Tanner Scott from the Miami Marlins. He has been active in 44 games this season, going 6-5 with 18 saves and a 1.44 ERA. He has also signed Brian Hoying.
San Diego also received left-hander Martin Perez from the Pittsburgh Pirates. It acquired outfielder Brandon Lockridge from the New York Yankees. San Diego is ranked 10th in the National League with a 4.10 ERA in its team’s bullpen through Sunday. However, the deal significantly strengthened the bullpen.
San Diego also needed to strengthen its starting lineup without Darvish Yu and Joe Musgrove. However, the team focused on the bullpen as it seemed to have the possibility of the two returning. “I think we have the power to win this year. I think we have the seriousness. We also need to see if we have the ability to win in three to five years.”
Prelor continued, “Both parts were neck-and-neck. There were players who could really influence our bullpen. We looked into Musgrove’s situation and his ability to help his team after his return. I definitely weighed the cost. Ultimately, he gave the bullpen a little more strength.”
Prelor said he was a buyer in the trade market, but the potential sacrifice was not significant. “We have a lot of good players in our system. I think pitcher Debs is underrated,” he said. He kept his team’s top prospects Leodalis de Vries and Ethan Salas.
In any case, San Diego’s bullpen reinforcement is significant with existing closer Robert Suarez in good shape. In particular, Jeremiah Estrada and Adrian Morezon will be less burdened. Estrada said, “There are three finishers now.”토토사이트
As such, the team has been eager to reinforce the bullpen, and it is impossible for San Diego that the central infielder Kim Ha-sung, who supports pitchers from right behind, will be traded. Kim Ha-sung has been suffering from trade rumors for the past two to three years, but he has not actually changed his uniform.
In the end, Kim Ha-sung will fully carry out the guarantee contract of a four-plus-one-year, $39 million contract in San Diego. It is highly likely that Kim Ha-sung will declare the FA without exercising his +1 year option after this season. Kim Ha-sung’s value is expected to be newly calculated this winter. For Kim Ha-sung, whose performance is inferior to last year, he needs to make efforts for the remaining two months.
