Now all they need is two more starting pitchers and 2-3 bats that can actually hit and get on base, and maybe.... just maybe they can actually win a playoff series.

Detroit Tigers just traded their top two starting pitchers for prospects AND going to make the playoffs.

How about that?

If just making the playoffs is good enough for Tiger fans, then more power to them, however Tiger's front office already quit this season by trading two starting pitchers for future prospects. Padres are just renting the pitcher they got from Tigers which will likely bite the Padres in the ass just like Soto which Padres traded the farm setting them back 10 years. Casey is just having a good year and is nowhere near at the level the pitcher Doyers traded for Casey is just average SP who is at the end of his contract which for some reason players whether it be NFL, MLB or NBA always seem to have a good year when their contract is near the end.

Padres are just putting a band aide on a stab wound I would have rather the new owner blow up the team keeping Tatis, Miller and Merril and start fresh even if it takes 3+ years to get back in playoff contention.
