Yankees and Padres discuss trade for Adrian Morejon without Mason Miller

The New York Yankees and San Diego Padres are exploring a trade that could send reliever Adrian Morejon to New York, according to The Athletic. The proposed deal involves the Yankees giving up prospects Elmer Rodriguez and Bryce Cunningham. Morejon has performed well in high-leverage situations and would enhance the Yankees' bullpen alongside closer David Bednar. Former MLB GM Jim Bowden suggests the Padres could use the trade to bolster their rotation despite still being in the wild-card race. No agreement has been reached yet.
