In this story:


The San Diego Padres beat the Texas Rangers, 3-2, on Independence Day in dramatic walk-off fashion. A clutch Jake Cronenworth single with two outs in the bottom of the 10th inning moved the Friars to 47-40 on the year.

Additionally, San Diego has a big-money trade proposal that would fill the position with the least amount of depth. Left field has been a giant question mark all year, but perhaps the trade market can make the Padres roster more well-rounded.

Finally, an All-Star with an expiring contract has been linked to the Friars. Although the deal would have to be made with a divisional rival, the undeniable bat from the infielder would likely improve an already electric offense.
