Padres Sitting Squarely on Trade Deadline Fence at .500

San Diego's front office says post-All-Star play will decide whether they buy or sell before the August 3 deadline.

The Padres enter the trade deadline stretch at 48-48, sitting 3.5 games out of a playoff spot in the NL. Team sources indicate the club's performance after the All-Star Break will drive the buy-or-sell decision. President of baseball operations A.J. Preller confirmed the open-minded approach, leaving all options on the table. If San Diego opts to sell, veterans such as Morejón, Jason Adam, Giolito, Canning, Márquez, and Buehler are among the names that could draw interest.
