Padres Not Considering Trading Fernando Tatis Jr.
San Diego Padres President of Baseball Operations A.J. Preller recently shut down any possible trade speculation surrounding outfielder Fernando Tatis Jr., telling Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune that Tatis Jr. is "somebody that we're not talking about." Preller has been known for making big moves in the trade market during his time in charge in San Diego, but it does not appear that the team is interested in trading away its superstar. Across 691 plate appearances for the Padres in 2025, Tatis Jr. slashed .268/.368/.446 with 25 home runs, 71 RBI, 111 runs scored, and 32 stolen bases. He upped his walk rate to a career high 12.9% while also slashing his strikeout rate to a career low 18.7%. San Diego has Tatis Jr. locked up under contract through 2034, so there is little impetus for the team to move him other than to save money or get back a monstrous haul of talent.
