This article was originally published on www.si.com/mlb/padres as Padres Rumors: MLB Insider Provides Massive Dylan Cease Trade Update. Robert Murray or Fansided stated the San Diego Padres are entertaining trade offers which include right-handed starting pitcher Dylan Cease, though a deal is unlikely.

The San Diego Padres might consider trading Dylan Cease at the trade deadline, and the Chicago Cubs could emerge as the best landing spot for a deal.

Will Sammon of The Athletic recently reported that New York could deal from its infield depth to fill other needs. The Mets have a quartet of young, cost-controlled contributors in Brett Baty, Mark Vientos, Ronny Mauricio and Luisangel Acuña to dangle on the market.
