Other key topics include Michael King's mysterious injury situation and potential contract, the philosophy behind prioritizing depth pieces over stars, and how the Padres' successful acquisitions like Ryan O'Hearn, Ramon Laureano, Jurickson Profar, and Donovan Solano proves affordable additions can fuel championship contention.
