Michael King vs. Freddy Peralta? Will someone not named the Dodgers land Tarik Skubal? Darren Smith and Marty Caswell discuss the biggest news from the first week of MLB free agency, and it involves Padres special assistant A.J. Ellis leaving for Andy Green and the New York.
The two discuss the surprising lack of moves in baseball free agency as the GM meeting looms, and a report that the Dodgers might not actually be players for Tarik Skubal. Marty and Darren then break down The Athletic's free agent projections surrounding notable players such as Michael King, Ty France, and Nick Pivetta.
Will a team really pay the top reliever on the market, Adrian Morejon over $100 million dollars in free agency? There may not be a more intriguing pitcher on the market that brings vastly contrasting market projections. The duo discuss what amount would make sense for the Padres to retain Morejon, and the biggest question they want answered from Preller at the GM meetings.
