The San Diego Padres build with a plan - Fox Sports Arizona "As far as 2012, “we realize no one is going to pick us, but we think we are better and we think when you get into it and you start playing well, you can build a lot of momentum quickly. With some of the moves we made, we don’t want to concede 2012 by any stretch. We want to give ourselves a chance,” Byrnes said."
Beyond The Boxscore looks at when the Padres window to win is "All 15 of their B-rated prospects are set to join the club by 2014, so while Alonso and Grandal will already have 2 years under their belt, you can see that their window starts sometime in 2014."
