Despite their poor record, the Padres should not be taken lightly. Here are three players the Phillies should look out for in this weekend’s series.

The Padres come into this weekend’s series with the Phillies dead last in the National League West at a paltry 46-71. With that being said, the Padres have been hitting the ball well of late and possess a nice crop of young talent along with the MLB’s best farm system.

The Phillies head to San Diego after not being able to secure a series win in Arizona but should be in a good position to do some damage. Let’s look at three Padres that may make life difficult for the Phillies this weekend.
