The rebuild continues. Moving Xander just makes sense at this point, and Brian was motivated to get him (for obvious reasons). Thrilled to reel in a bat like Martorella, and willing to take a flier on a young arm like Phillips, who was headed towards the first round of the 2022 draft before he ran into TJS. Taking on Poche's 2024 salary to help facilitate the deal, but he goes right onto the next block. 

Great negotiations, Brian - thanks!

Padres Accept

Adding Bogaerts now gives me a top 10 SS in 2024 and a better chance to retain a core group in Tatis/Machado/Bogaerts/Snell for the next 3 years with the 30% advantage to resign both Tatis and Bogaerts. I didn't really want to lose Martorella, but the return should be immediate. Lets just hope this group wins more games in this league than they do in real life.

Thanks for putting up with me Dan!
