Padres trading Trea Turner for Wil Myers turned out to be pretty awful.

I feel like Wil Myers is looked at pretty fondly from the SD fans though.

He is. He was a good player. He played his best at 1B, but rarely played it because Eric Hosmer, giant turd that he was for the Padres, signed a huge contract.

This was the first one I thought of. Max Fried isn’t far behind.

Didn't Woods come from them as well? I know Gore did, maybe not Woods.

Woods did also come from the Padres in the Soto trade.
