February is the month when Major League Baseball teams begin to gather at their Spring Training facilities. The San Diego Padres look like a postseason contender on paper, but the front office must settle the first base debate before the opening of full squad workouts in Peoria. Castellanos is a proven run producer, having driven in 100 runs three times in his 13-year major league career. The sticking point in a potential trade is that Castellanos is owed $20 million in the final year of his contract. Unfortunately, most major league teams are willing to take a risk on power hitters with defensive limitations rather than top-of-the-order hitters who have a skillset not built to drive in runs.
