Padres Have Discussed Multiple Marlins Relievers

By Anthony Franco | July 30, 2024 at 12:25pm CDT

The Padres paid a hefty prospect price to add Jason Adam to their late-innings mix over the weekend. San Diego is open to bringing in more relief help. Dennis Lin of the Athletic reports that the Padres have discussed Miami right-handers Anthony Bender and Huascar Brazoban among that search. Lin’s colleague Ken Rosenthal wrote this morning that the Fish are fielding offers on essentially all their relievers. Closer Tanner Scott is the most obvious name, but it wouldn’t be a surprise to see Miami part with anyone from their bullpen.

Bender and Brazoban would be affordable targets for a San Diego team that doesn’t want to surpass the luxury tax threshold. Brazoban is still two years away from reaching arbitration. Bender qualified for early arbitration last winter as a Super Two player. After missing the 2023 season to Tommy John surgery, though, he’s barely making more than the league minimum in his first trip through that process.

The asking price would probably be higher on the 29-year-old Bender, who has a 3.83 ERA over 40 innings of work. He’s striking out 24.4% of batters faced against a 7% walk rate while getting grounders at a 49.1% clip. Brazoban has been even more effective, turning in a 2.93 earned run average with a 27.2% strikeout rate across 30 2/3 frames. He’ll turn 35 in October, though, so a rebuilding Miami team shouldn’t have many qualms about giving him up for young talent.

MLB.com’s AJ Cassavell tweets that the Padres are hoping to come out of deadline season with another acquisition for both the rotation and the relief group. Lin writes that San Diego is among the teams that have shown interest in Miami starter Trevor Rogers. Craig Mish of SportsGrid and the Miami Herald tweeted this afternoon that Miami’s talks on Rogers with multiple teams were picking up and the Marlins were likely to trade him somewhere soon. That at least opens the speculative possibility of some kind of package deal involving one of Miami’s relievers, though there’s not any indication that San Diego’s talks with Miami have gotten that far-reaching.

    I like Brazobon for the padres.

    I don’t really like Roger’s.

    I love Tanner Scott.

      I think Rogers is worth acquiring for the right price. Of his 21 starts, he’s had 11 where he went at least 5 innings with 2 ER or fewer.

      I think he’s fine as a backend option. He’s at least an upgrade over Mazur in the short-term.

      Right now it seems like they need a lefty RP more than a righty, at least as long as Peralta is out

        I think Peralta will be back fairly soon.

        With him they would have three lefties so they would prob be fine.

      Scott is scary and not just scary good. That 15% BB rate would be tough to watch. His FIP is 2 points higher than his ERA and all those walks is the reason.

      Padres need a rental starter. A good one.

      I like Brazoban. He induces soft contact, throws mid to upper 90s, and has decent command. Problem is he is 34.

        That’s okay, we just need him to be good for 1.5 years. Pen arms maybe broken from day to day week two week or year to year. He is good now and that’s what matters.

          True that. At MLB minimum if he is good through October that is enough as long as the cost in prospects is low.

      Mazur I could see being dealt. Pauley and Eguy could be dealt. Only Scott would cost all that much.

      I think the padres may trade snelling for flaherty.

      Some very good pitchers at the lower levels. Several promising relief pitchers at High-A and AA (Francis Pena in particular). Offensive players? Not so much.

        Tirso Ornelas, Victor Lizarraga and Brandon Valenzuela might attract some trade interest.

        On offense its Ornelas, Rosario, and then a long gap to DeVries. That is about it. Its another reason why De Vries will not be traded regardless of the return.

    The question will the Padres just say to heck with the luxury tax threshold, they cannot let Scott or any other top reliever go to the Dodgers.

      None of the guys the padres are linked to would put them over the tax.

      Brazoban shouldn’t cost all that much, and if the Fish aren’t budging then I’d just keep walking.

        He’s actually been good last couple years. He’s had good results and comes with 3 or 4 years team control I think He’s around adams age and we saw what he went for at 2.5 years team control

        3.56 era, 3.62 FIP, 10 k/9 4.7 bb/9 in 97 games vs 3.07 era 3.82 FIP 10 k/9 3.7 bb/9 249 games

    Curious, did anyone hear ANY rumors about the Padres trade for Adam before it happened?

    How about for Arraez?

    Exactly.

      There was a report about 1.5 months beforehand about the padres talked to the marlins about Luzardo and Arraez. That went cold for awhile before it was out of know where.

      Most preller rumors you hear about after the deal didn’t work out.

    I’ve been a huge A.J Prellar critic the last few years, but you have to admit the man does know how to pull off a trade. He clearly must be dealing from an endless supply of tradeable prospects, which suggests he’s pretty good in the drafting department.

    Just heard about the Tanner Scott trade. Whatever you think about Preller, and the Padres he’s spent and prospects he’s traded, at least THESE Padres are making moves to be competitive. Most of the years BP (i.e. before Preller), the trade deadline was where the Padres OFFLOADED their most prized, money saving players and prospects, in exchange for some veteran retread who would make the Padres his final MLB team, as he flamed out within a year.

    Anyone who’s critical of the large money deals, trading away prospects, longs for the “boring”, hopeless years of Padres baseball, whether or not they know it. The Padres may or not make the playoffs this year, or last very long once they do, but I have to believe that Padres ownerships and Preller, are doing everything they know (reasonably) possible to create a competitive team, that realistically, COULD win it all for 2024.

    Bravo Zulu, Preller and his staff. Thanks, owners!
