I just have a hard time seeing the Padres as a threat in the West.
they are making the right moves, but at this point it's still playing catch up with SFO and LAD. Should be a fun team to watch with plenty of firepower.
Going after Middlebrooks now?
Padres, Red Sox Nearing Deal To Swap Hanigan, Middlebrooks ? MLB Trade Rumors
They are coming out of nowhere and making a bunch of noise. Could become a serious threat.
Feel like the Braves fleeced the Padres (even if only one year). Mallex I think could be good in the MLB, but the rest are garbage.

I am not sure I classify them as a "serious threat", but defiantly like what they have done.
The prob is, it looks they are basically emptying out their farm system. Not sure that is a sustainable strategy for a small market org.
Still pretty iffy on their rotation.
Mallex looks good. Peterson is only 2 years removed from HS, so you really can't look at his numbers and judge.
Nice haul by the Braves.
