With Spring Training around the corner, we continue our position-by-position look at the Padres. We've covered catcher, first base, second base, third base, shortstop, outfield and the bullpen. Today we tackle the starting rotation.
SAN DIEGO -- When asked at the Winter Meetings to highlight what he feels the strength of the Padres will be, first-year manager Andy Green didn't hesitate or waver when it came time for a response.
It's the starting rotation, Green said.
"[The] strength of the team would be those three horses in front of the rotation right now," Green said, as he referred to James Shields, Tyson Ross and Andrew Cashner.
