I still feel like our offense isn't clicking on all cylinders yet. Santander has been down, Adley hasn't found alot of extra base power, Holliday has been a black hole so far, Hays was bad and now injured, Urias hasn't hit well.
It should be noted that it was the 8-9 hitters up at the time of that call. So while it was the wrong call, its not like the Angels definitely tie it if he's called safe. There is a very good chance Rengifo makes an out a pitch or two later anyway.
So yes, bad call, but we didn't steal the game away because of that one call.
That’s not really the right way to look at the Tatis deal.
The first 5 years of the deal, the Padres had team control anyway. He got 44M for those years.
So, the deal was really a 9/296 extension. That’s about 33M a year.
What option is most valuable?
1 - Mullins' value to us in 2025 + Comp Pick
2 - A trade package of what Mullins would bring back if traded next offseason?
3 - Extend for 2025 and beyond? I guess that probably looks like 4/70ish for 2025-2028. Which would be Mullins' age 30-33 years. Buxton got 7/100. This was the closest comp I could find with skill/age taken into account.
