San Diego Padres acquire Chicago White Sox ace Dylan Cease
==========
The San Diego Padres have acquired Dylan Cease from the Chicago White Sox in a trade. The Padres will send two of their top 10 pitching prospects, Drew Thorpe and Jairo Iriarte, to the White Sox. The White Sox had been looking to trade Cease and had been in talks with the New York Yankees and Texas Rangers. Cease, who is earning $8 million and won't be a free agent until after 2025, had a 4.58 ERA last season and finished second in American League Cy Young voting in 2022. The trade is still pending physicals. The Padres have been cutting payroll, trading Juan Soto and letting Blake Snell walk away. The Yankees, who were interested in Cease, are expected to be without ace Gerrit Cole for the start of the season due to elbow concerns. The Padres' rotation will now include Yu Darvish, Joe Musgrove, Cease, and Michael King.
