Debated whether this needed its own thread but Paddack was quite a controversial topic here when he was dealt years ago so...

Bendix doing things!

He's good？

Welcome back Padawan , now let’s go get Gallen back

If they could get Gallen back then they wouldn't get Padawan back.

Bruce loses money would make me happy.

Paddack is the new Quantrill, open to grabbing Gallen too but he may be asking a bunch.

Between teal returning and Paddack returning, @pollythewog won't need his viagra this week.

Like this a lot better than Quantrill. We’ll see if father dix can get his HR down

Gallen also repped by Boras. Not happening. Lol

For what it's worth, Paddack was decent in 2019 and serviceable in 2020. He dealt with a string of injuries from 2021-2024. Last year was his first healthy season and he had good enough numbers through early June. After not really pitching a full season in 6 years, he really struggled down the stretch. Pretty low risk move tbh. If he stays healthy, there is a decent chance he rebounds from his 2nd half last season. Or you could limit his innings by starting him in the pen or moving him there when White or Snelling get called up. If he gets hurt, 4 million is small enough that even a team like the Marlins can eat the money.

Yeah, I think Gallen has had a high price tag.

I like this move. Gives us more depth after trading 2 starters, and at the very least, hopefully a good trade chip if/when we're out of the race.

I remember the tremendous amount of CRYING on the Marlins boards when we traded Paddock.

We're do it RIGHT to trade him but do it WRONG to sign him back.

Which one is Paddack ?

What a joke, trade Cabrera and Weathers for no reason and then sign a bad SP for no reason.

Paddock DFAd 😳

Wonder who stepped up and said "nah he has to go"

Somebody in the FO grew a sack. An encouraging step.

I'll sign for 1 million dollars for 10 games.
