    Hosmer can only nix trades to 10 teams

      Who else do the Pads have left in their system to deal for Contreras? I would guess he's going to command at least 2 VERY good prospects.

        Pads were going to pick up the next 2 years of that salary anyhow, I don't think that'd change.

            Congrats all the trades. I guess Preller outdid himself.

              He had to, he's been on the hot seat since last year's deadline debacle and subsequent collapse

                So Hosmer is still a Padres.

                    Only until they can find one of the 20 other teams they can deal him to.

                      So the Pads STILL get Soto and don't have to part with that Dave and Buster Gift Card--I'd say it's a win!!

                        What if no team wants him?

                          He is going to end up on the Cubs.

                            I don't see how Hosmer will remain a Padre. The Padre fan base was done with him last season and he's been kind of an ass since those trade rumors last season and now this. If he ever sees the field in Petco, you'll hear the boos in Georgia.

                                For wanting to remain a Padre?

                                Fans are weird.
