Dylan Cease to the Rescue: Ha-seong Kim’s Future Uncertain
The San Diego Padres have been predicted to trade star pitcher Dylan Cease to the Baltimore Orioles in exchange for outfielders Heston Kjerstad, and their No. 5 prospect, Enrique Bradfield Jr. While it may seem counterintuitive for a contending team in San Diego to get rid of their ace, Cease, it could be a way for the team to slash their payroll.
Additionally, Padres free agent shortstop Ha-Seong Kim has been predicted to sign with the Atlanta Braves, a staunch National League rival. While his shoulder surgery has complicated his free agency, Kim is an excellent player and would be a great addition to Atlanta.
