Padres games now guarantee thrills, thanks to a possibly unprecedented collection of positional superstars.
“Walking into this clubhouse, it feels like walking into an All-Star Game,” said Matt Carpenter, who signed with the Padres for his best chance at a championship.
A brilliant foursome highlights baseball’s most daunting lineup. Likely leadoff man Xander Bogaerts appears ready to start things for an offense that may never stop. “With Tatis you’re liable to see something you’ve never seen before,” Carpenter said. “You could make a case all four of these guys could win MVP.”APHere, in the most unlikely gathering place for superstars and future Hall of Famers, optimism reigns. The Padres have undergone a turnaround like none before. They are the West Coast version of the Mets for their spending but a much more shocking variety following a history of just scraping by.
What’s most amazing is that payroll zooming right to the cusp of the third-tier tax threshold of $271M. It’s third highest in the game, ahead of the Dodgers, the big rival 90 miles to the north, and behind only the Mets and Yankees. No one could have ever imagined this.
