Padres make trades, keep key bullpen arms at MLB deadline
Summary

On August 3, 2026, the San Diego Padres made significant moves before the MLB Trade Deadline, acquiring left-hander Robbie Ray from the San Francisco Giants and right-hander Casey Mize along with utility player Gage Workman from the Detroit Tigers. The Padres retained their top relievers Mason Miller, Adrian Morejon, Jeremiah Estrada, and Wandy Peralta, who were subject to trade speculation. With these additions, San Diego aims to strengthen its rotation as it sits just outside of playoff contention. The returns of Joe Musgrove and Nick Pivetta are anticipated at the end of August, potentially bolstering the pitching staff further.
