“You come to a point in the season where you want to at least make incremental upgrades,” Padres manager Bob Melvin ѕaid of acquiring Sanchez.”I know (Sanchez) has been through a few teams lately, but he has a history of performing.

The Padres, who have lost three of their past four games, clearly miss Manny Machado. The All-Star third baseman slugged 60 homers and drove in 208 runs over the previous two seasons. He also finished second last year in National League MVP voting.
Machado, who signed an 11-year, $350 million contract extension in February, has been out since breaking his left hand when hit by a pitch on May 15.
