The San Diego Padres have joined the group of teams that are looking to add Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. ahead of Thursday's trade deadline.

The San Diego Padres desperately need to add a star to their outfield, and a trade for Chicago White Sox slugger Luis Robert Jr. seems to make perfect sense.

“Luis Robert Jr. is one of the main trade candidates to watch today,” Mark Feinsand said in a post. “The Mets and Phillies remain in the mix to some extent, but according to a source, the Padres have emerged as the team to watch. San Diego seems motivated to add an outfielder today.”
