San Diego Padres farm system takes center stage as trade deadline looms. Will A.J. Preller make a splash or stand pat?

The duo analyzes potential trade targets, weighing the value of rentals against players with team control and whether or not a big splash is even necessary. Aram also offers insights on the Padres knack for developing relief pitchers and how it could impact deadline decisions.
