San Diego Padres and "Richest Contract in Sports History" are words that I never thought I'd see in the same sentence.
Rumor is that Kuechel signing is soon after. Wouldn't be surprised to see some OF depth dealt - Franchy, Margot, Renfroe, Myers, Franmil along with a young pitcher for a Stroman type.
A starting lineup like this could be in the next year:
1b - Hosmer
2b - Urias
3b - Machado
SS - Tatis
LF - Myers/Franchy/Reyes
CF - Margot/Franchy
RF - Renfroe/Myers/Reyes
C - Hedges/Mejia
P - Lucchesi - Lamet - Paddack - Gore - Morejon - Baez... and there's still Espinoza coming back from TJ

I guess the question now is are they going to make a run at starting pitching? Keuchel? resurrect trades that they were rumored to be in on (I know Stroman was one)? Or wait until next year?
edit: ff, we're thinking along the same lines ... btw, good to see you back here!It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.

it'll be interesting to see if the White Sox have a plan B ...
Certainly, the White Sox believe they’ve lost their primary winter target. VP Kenny Williams expressed shock in comments to reporters. “We could not go to that $300MM level,” he said (via Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times, on Twitter). Williams indicated that he had believed the South Siders were the high bidders, James Fegan of The Athletic tweets, so it seems the Padres upped their high bid at the last minute to push things across the line.It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.

The Brewers are looking smarter for grabbing Moustakis early. He could have been the White Sox plan B. Now they have to go with plan C. Moncada to third base?“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”
