Live Look At AJ Asking to Trea Back



SBnation.com - The San Diego Padres have dangled most of their roster out on the trade market, including their closer Craig Kimbrel. Among the teams interested for Kimbrel are the Washington Nationals and Toronto Blue Jays.
The Padres and general manager A.J. Preller are setting their sights high in terms of a return. They suggested to the Nationals a package including shortstop prospect Trea Turneraccording to Jon Heyman of CBS Sports.  Heyman's sources say the chances of Turner being apart of a deal are between "slim and none."
Turner was originally a member of the Padres, drafted 13th overall in the 2014 MLB Draft. He was traded this past winter as part of a three team trade that netted the Padres outfielder Wil Myers.

Bad bad bad look for the Pads that this news got leaked to the public. I for one the love the audacity of asking back for a guy that was literally in your organization last month. I always tried the good ol' givesies backsies move back in the day on the schoolyard trying to swindle a lesser developed kid into getting max return on a 3 way complicated snack trade.

I mean this is just as sad as it gets in the GM world. The story didn't get any play here in local media because the Padres beat writers are borderline retarded in terms of covering Padres trade scenarios. They simply regurgitate "info" from obviously false leaked info from inside the front office.

Also if you're shocked by an action like this from this business then you probably have alzheimer's. Nothing shocks me at this point. 

P.S.  How come the central infielders depth overall in pro ball kinda sucks? 
P.P.S.  Central infielders need to be allowed to get back on the juice. 


Above pic is an absolute dog fight for king creepy. AJ's not creepy just weird. Other 3 creepiness scares me TBH.
