Listen "Bring Back Michael King? Let Luis Arraez Walk? Examining The Padres' Offseason Decisions"

Episode Synopsis

The Padres have 12 players who could be free agents and seven players headed to arbitration from their 90-win team. Kyle Glaser and Heath Bell break down the key decisions the Padres have to make this offseason, including whether to extend Luis Arraez a qualifying offer, how hard they should try to retain Michael King if he declines his player option, and if Ryan O'Hearn showed enough to justify the Padres making him their everyday first baseman. Plus, a look at tonight's Mariners-Tigers ALCS matchup, and why Heath Bell felt especially bad for Orion Kerkering as a fellow reliever.Download the DraftKings Pick6 app now and use code FOUL – play just $5, get $50 in Pick6 bonus picks.Friar Territory Presented by FOX One: Start your 7-day free trial today at FOXone.comFriar Territory is the official San Diego Padres podcast of the Foul Territory Network. Follow us on X: @FriarTerritory Kyle Glaser on X: @KyleAGlaser Heath Bell on X: @HeathBell21
