Padres Make Clear Decision on Trading Fernando Tatis Jr. & Manny Machado

After an end of the season surge, the San Diego Padres narrowly snuck their way into the postseason. They swiftly knocked out the Chicago Cubs in the Wild Card series, outscoring them 12-1.

However, their season ended short of their goal yet again, after facing the now World Series' National League representative Milwaukee Brewers.

Pressure is on for the Padres. They've made big moves over the past several seasons trying to establish a dynasty and hoist the World Series for the first time in franchise history, yet nothing has paid off.

Now that the offseason is underway, Padres general manager A.J. Preller makes it clear on whether or not they plan on trading star third baseman Manny Machado and star right fielder Fernando Tatis Jr.
