97 games into the season, the Padres have a 3.5 game lead on the San Francisco Giants, The Dodgers and Rockies are 6 and 8 games back respectively. There is no need to make a move, its great that there is talks though, bats seem to be coming alive, and the pitching has kept on pitching well. Ernesto Frieri has been a great revelation, and there is still bullpen help down in the minors, Evan Scribner, the AA closer could come up and help the bullpen out.
Pitchers like Simon Castro, Corey Luebke and Cory Kluber could all come up and make a spot start, they have all put up excellent numbers in AA and AAA.
Besides, to get a good bat would mean Simon Castro or young guns like Matthew Lolis, Keyvius Sampson or Adys Portillo would have to be involved. All for one shot? Sure that sounds great, but Adrian Gonzalez is surely gone after this year, Jon Garland, Kevin Correia and others could be gone after the year as well. They made it this far with the guys they have, they should let them finish it, they have great chemistry and should be allowed to make a run with the guys they have.
