The San Diego Padres are a team that doesn't really need to do much this offseason.  Sure losing Cespedes will hurt next season, but they have enough depth in the outfield to help with another playoff run.  With a solid rotation and bullpen, look for San Diego to be a major contender in the National league again next season.
