Part 2/7:
Dylan Cease has been a central figure in trade discussions. The speculation surrounding him has heightened, especially as the Mets have shown interest in acquiring him. Despite recent trade chatter about various other Padres pitchers, Cease stands out as a potential "S-tier" acquisition for any team looking to bolster their rotation.
Luis Arraez: The Versatile Lefty
Luis Arraez is another name that has garnered attention. Acclaimed for his on-base skills and ability to get hits, he may not be an "S-tier" player but is certainly valued highly. Teams in need of a left-handed contact hitter should keep a watchful eye on him as he could potentially be traded at a reasonable cost.
