Right-hander Dylan Cease has found a new home. The San Diego Padres are finalizing a deal to acquire the right-hander from the Chicago White Sox, sources confirmed Wednesday to Yahoo Sports.
Cease has been one of the hottest names on the market this offseason, and over the past month, Chicago received renewed interest from teams looking to make a major splash ahead of Opening Day.
In return for Cease, the White Sox will receive pitching prospects Drew Thorpe and Jairo Iriarte, outfield prospect Samuel Zavala and reliever Steven Wilson, according to multiple media reports.
