It appears quite clear that the San Diego Padres have zero desire to trade Fernando Tatis Jr. The star has been widely rumored to be traded for a very long time now. While the subject gets forced, the new incoming ownership is prepared to compete rather than save money, much like Steve Cohen in New York and the Mark Walter-led Los Angeles Dodgers. There is a world where a trade could eventually happen. Tatis Jr. is under a 15-year monster contract, and if the team and/or Tatis Jr. fail in 2026, we have seen how quickly storylines can change. The odds of a Tatis trade are near-zero in 2026, but not zero. Nonetheless, we absolutely do not advertise a likely trade during the happening season. When playing fantasy baseball, we not only strategize and use facts, but we also hope. It is wild to say that fans of sport do not 'hope' on results, and in the long term, Tatis could have even higher value if the trade market reignites. Where would be 'hope' for Tatis to end up, perhaps in 2027 or beyond?…
