The San Diego Padres are trying to shed payroll this offseason, and one way they could do it is by trading Luis Arraez as he enters his final year of team control.

Arraez has been traded twice in the last few seasons, and could be dealt to his fourth team in four years if he's moved this offseason.

As trade rumors swirl about a potential deal to the New York Yankees, Arraez posted a cryptic comment on social media under a post about a trade.

In other Padres news, the Friars have been linked to a free agent outfielder who began his career as a top prospect in the Los Angeles Dodgers organization.

He would be a solid fallback option for the Friars if they don't bring back All-Star outfielder Jurickson Profar, who could be out of their price range.
