Padres free agency, can Adrian Morejon close? Keith Law joins the show

Padres free agency is officially underway!

The Athletic's Keith Law joins Marty Caswell and Darren Smith to break down his top 40 MLB free agents, why he ranked Michael King 10th overall, and what kind of value he brings to a team. Keith breaks down this year's qualifying offers, why it's so unusual to see relievers receive the QO, why it could make sense for Adrian Morejon to accept it and if he could be a successful closer.

Would and should the Padres consider trading Mason Miller given the relative depth of their bullpen and obvious roster needs? Keith makes the case for moving Miller and why it's a huge mistake to give relievers long-term deals. What kind of deal can Ty France expect after a career season with the Padres?

Are teams more likely to make a flurry of moves before the projected December lockout? Darren, Keith and Marty discuss the biggest factors that lie ahead, and what the Padres should do with Ethan Salas, Luis Campusano, and Freddy Fermin.
