“PADRES0-HEADLINES”
=======

The 1st full workout for the entire squad at the Padres Spring Training Camp in Arizona.

New faces fighting for jobs.

Looking to wash away the stain of the 24-straight shutout innings in the playoffs with the Dodgers.

Not paying attention to the Civil War in the front office, or the concerns about future payroll or luxury tax issues.
