Padres eyeing trade for Twins' All-Star pitcher Joe Ryan

The San Diego Padres are reportedly considering a trade to acquire Minnesota Twins All-Star starter Joe Ryan. Known for their aggressive approach at the trade deadline, the Padres may offer prospects Miguel Mendez and Garrett Hawkins to secure Ryan, who has an ERA of 3.20 this season. Ryan's contract includes an extra year of club control, making him an attractive option as the trade deadline approaches. The Padres may also consider including a major league player in the trade, given their limited farm system. This potential move would significantly enhance their pitching rotation for the upcoming seasons.
