The San Diego Padres beat the Colorado Rockies, 8-7, in walk-off fashion Tuesday evening and improved to 54-53. In a wild back-and-forth game, the Padres got the last laugh on a Xander Bogaerts walk-off sacrifice fly. Fernando Tatis Jr. had the first five-hit game of his career.“It had a little bit of everything, right?” Tatis said. “It was fun and weird to watch at the same time. But we got a ‘W,’ and that’s all that matters at this point.”In trade deadline news, the Friars have reportedly been scouting the New York Yankees, and even asked about a specific prospect. It is commonplace for both clubs to have scouts littered around each other's minor league tracks, but after a Yankees first-round pick from 2025 was promoted from the Florida Complex League to Low-A, specific interest was generated. In other news, the Padres have sent a message to teams regarding trade interest in Mason Miller. Though he was acquired just one year ago and is currently playing some of the best baseball of his career (0.81 ERA with a 101.4 mph average fastball that is in the 100th percentile in MLB), that hasn't stopped the chatter.The Reaper has been in constant trade rumors this season, and the Padres not positioning themselves as established buyers or sellers yet hasn't helped. ESPN MLB insider Jeff Passan reported that after the Padres sent out their message regarding Miller, teams have started to change courses. "That is a tack that some teams have said, 'You know what, we're gonna pump the brakes on this now,'" Passan said on his podcast, Sources Tell Jeff Passan. "I would anticipate that those teams will check back in toward the end of this week as the Monday deadline approaches."Finally, there is a trade update on veteran shortstop Xander Bogaerts. After he inked an 11-year, $280 million deal ahead of the 2023 season, it is no secret that the Padres wouldn't mind parting ways with such a large contract. Passan reported that even with the upcoming deadline, finding a deal that includes Bogaerts will be nearly impossible. The veteran is batting just .219 this season, but due to the recent reports and the behemoth of a contract that he is tied to, fans shouldn't expect the No. 8 spot in the lineup to change come Aug. 4.
