Tuesday was a busy day in Major League Baseball, with the players union, Twins and Padres all making headlines.

The Padres have reportedly signed Buehler on a one-year, minor league deal on Monday. Buehler's signing comes in the wake of the Padres, valued at $1.9 billion by Forbes, signing veteran slugger Nick Castellanos on Saturday. MLB fans reacted to the Padres signing the former Dodgers ace.

The San Diego Padres added to their depth in the infield and the rotation on Monday, agreeing to minor league deals with first baseman Ty France and right-hander Walker Buehler, according to multiple media reports.

Former Boston Red Sox pitcher Walker Buehler, who spent part of 2025 with the Sox, has signed a minor league deal with the San Diego Padres. It's a return to the West Coast for Buehler, who starred for most of his career with the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Walker Buehler would have made sense for the Phillies on a minor-league deal but took that minor-league deal elsewhere. The Phils will still have rotation depth options this month or next, though.

With confirmation on Monday from manager Dave Roberts that Tommy Edman will begin the season on the injured list, naturally conversation turned to what is now an open competition in Dodgers camp for playing time at second base.
