The San Diego Padres have not made any moves this offseason after a strong 2023 season. They lost in the National League Division Series but remain competitive in the league. Reports suggest the Padres may sign Japanese pitcher Roki Sasaki, who had a successful season with a 2.35 ERA. He is expected to sign between January 15 and 23. The Padres need to strengthen their pitching staff, especially with Joe Musgrove sidelined. Other teams, like the Arizona Diamondbacks, have already made significant additions to their rotations.
