Former Padres pitcher Dylan Cease will upgrade the Blue Jays pitching staff but he will miss his old teammates

As of now, the Padres are reportedly listening to trade offers on a few of their star players, including closer Mason Miller and starter Nick Pivetta. But the Padres could also look to add some talent at the big league level, including a talented outfielder.

White announced his retirement while being honored Tuesday as one of Major League Baseball's Scouts of the Year recipients.

Former San Diego closer Robert Suarez signed a deal with the Atlanta Braves, Thursday and that has only breathed new life into the possibility of a Miller trade. Preller has stated that he is not looking to trade Miller or any of the other top arms in his bullpen, but he has also said in previous interviews that he will listen on anyone.

The Los Angeles Dodgers could pursue one of the top relievers in the league from a division rival in free agency.

This will be the Padres’ second trip to Mexico City in four seasons. They swept the Giants there in 2023 by scores of 16-11 and 6-4. The teams combined for 15 home runs at Estadio Alfredo Harp Helú, which is approximately 7,350 feet above sea level.

The former Dodgers director of amateur scouting who brought Matt Kemp, Clayton Kershaw, Corey Seager, and others to the Dodgers has retired.
