Craig Elsten, Chris Reed, and Raphie Cantor in a week where little happened. Yes, the Padres have a new manager in Mike Shildt, but the stove at 19 Tony Gwynn Drive is ice cold. That being said, the free agent market for starting pitchers is being set around the league, including the signings of Sonny Gray (STL) and Kenta Maeda (DET) on Monday. How can the Padres build up their rotation in the coming weeks? We trade for and sign some pitchers. Be sure to stay 'til the end for a wild card!
