The San Diego Padres have been discussing a few blockbuster trades this winter but none is more surprising than one including Cy Young vote-getter Dylan Cease. Could the Friars really move him after one season in San Diego?

San Diego has been on the lookout for relievers but one of the Padres' free agents could be on the move and leaving the National League altogether. Where could All-Star reliever Tanner Scott land this winter?
