SAN DIEGO – The Padres and Dodgers appeared on the verge of a Matt Kemp blockbuster late Wednesday night, sources said.

The sides were said to be exchanging final information n before a deal is presumably consummated that would move the superstar outfielder 90 miles to the south, to play for the division rival Padres.

The Dodgers asked for catcher Yasmany Grandal plus young pitchers Joe Ross and Zach Eflin. Grandal was believed to be the centerpiece of the package, though it isn't known what the final package was.

Deal is announced: #Tigers trade Eugenio Suarez and Jonathon Crawford to #Reds for Alfredo Simon.

Tigers dealing their #2 prospect for a bad 33-year old SP who probably killed a guy once

I remember my friend who is a Yankee "fan" thought that Melky and Miggy were the same person...

I thought they were brothers but I was 10 at the time.

Sounds like it's the Mariners or Athletics for young pitching.
--------------------
Rosenthal says its not the Athletics. So, it's likely the Mariners.


This better not be Taijuan Walker.

It's the Padres.
