Naturally the San Diego Padres odds just got a lot better. Before the trade, the Padres were +1600, now they’re around +1200 depending on the book.

Now the Padres have some ground to make up in the playoff race. They are 12 games behind Los Angeles but the Wild Card race is a tight one. They are currently second in the Wild Card race two games behind the Atlanta Braves who are red hot.
