Do San Diego Padres need to make a blockbuster trade this offseason

The San Diego Padres are definitely a better team right now than they were in 2020 simply by the acquisition of Tommy Pham.

If we go into the 2020 season with the roster as currently constructed and everyone stays healthy, I believe this team can win 80-85 games.

While that’s certainly an improvement from 2019 and gives the team a chance at their first winning record since 2010, I’m not sure that it’s enough to get them in the playoffs.

It still feels like there is something missing for this roster to put them over the top.
