Joey Gallo
If there is a team that is still going to be interested in Joey Gallo, it will be the San Diego Padres.
After a disastrous showing in New York last season, the Yankees were reportedly looking to entertain offers. The Padres had interest then, just as they did when the Rangers put him on the block. After all, A.J. Preller seems to enjoy collecting as many former Rangers as he can from his time in the organization.
Such would be the case with Gallo. However, the Yankees did not move him during the offseason because they refused to part ways with him at a lower value. They may not have a choice now, as his 86 OPS+ and nine homers with 80 strikeouts in 204 plate appearances were not even close to what they had hoped for. He clearly needs a change of scenery.
The Padres could be the right fit after all. They have been looking to add more pop to the batting order and right field has been a disaster with Wil Myers. While Nomar Mazara has been productive since being recalled, he does not exactly have an extensive track record of success. As maddening as Gallo and his Three True Outcomes performance may be, when he does get hot, he can change the game. The Padres need another player like that in their lineup.
The San Diego Padres may be the only team interested in Joey Gallo. If the Yankees move on, that may be their only option for a deal.
