Padres: Preller’s Job Safe, Was Actually Promoted in a Way

The San Diego Padres are shaking it up following an NL West last place finish in 2016. Relieving President and CEO Mike Dee of his duties last week, the team now moves forward with their search for a replacement.

As A.J. Preller returns from a 30-day suspension, new reports indicate that his position as San Diego’s general manager is safe. In fact, despite a low approval rating among many fans, and his dishonesty towards to Boston Red Sox regarding the medical information of Drew Pomeranz, Preller gets a promotion of sorts.
