• Nick Castellanos Signs With Padres, Manny Sends A Message
    Feb 16 2026

    Marty Caswell and Darren Smith discuss Nick Castellanos signing with the Padres after an unceremonious exit with the Phillies.

    What was Manny Machado's reaction? We hear from Manny on his excitement for his fellow 305 friend and the clear message he sent the Padres on AJ Preller's lack of a contract extension.

    Preller discusses what kind of role they envision for Castellanos, and why he felt comfortable bringing him to San Diego.

    Last but not least, Castellanos explains why the Padres were the right fit for him and what it means to get a fresh start, although his role is very likely to change.
