The change is still subject to the results of medical examinations.
Parents they continue to reinforce their starting corps. The team agreed to a seven-player trade with the Puppies, acquiring the right pitcher Yu darvish, according to sources.
Along with Darvish, the Padres are going to get the Puerto Rican catcher Victor Caratini in exchange for the right Zach Davies and four minor league players: Panamanian shortstop Reginald Preciado, outfielder Owen Caissie, Dominican ranger Ismael Mena and Dominican shortstop Yeison Santana, a source said.
Darvish, 34, had a 2.01 ERA last season and finished second in voting for the National League Cy Young Award. He will be under contractual control of the team for three more years, and he is owed $ 62 million. In eight seasons in the major leagues, Darvish has earned a place among the best arms in the game, averaging 3.47 earned runs and 11.1 strikeouts per nine innings of his major league career.
If the Padres manage to complete their trades for Darvish and Snell, the front end of their rotation for 2021 could look like this:
1) Darvish – 2) Snell – 3) Dinelson Lamet – 4) Chris Paddack
Of course, that doesn’t include his two big pitching prospects, MacKenzie Gore and Ryan Weathers, and not right-hander Mike Clevinger, who is expected to return from Tommy John surgery for the 2022 season.
