The Padres have become the talk of the MLB over the last couple of days, being rumored in every major trade conversation. Those talks came to a head this week when San Diego acquired former Cy Young Award winner Blake Snell from the Tampa Bay Rays last night. Today, the Dodgers NL West rivals made another huge move and got a whole lot better.
The Padres have reportedly made a trade for former Dodgers pitcher Yu Darvish. San Diego managed to pry Darvish away from the Cubs just one season after arguably the best year of his career.
