The San Diego Padres have bolstered their rotation for the stretch run.
The San Francisco Giants are finalizing a deal to send lefty Robbie Ray to San Diego, ESPN's Jeff Passan reported on Monday.
The Giants acquired prospects Miguel Mendez and Joniel Hernandez in return.
While he’s yet to recapture the form from his 2021 American League Cy Young-winning season with the Toronto Blue Jays, Ray has remained a front-line starting pitcher.
The 34-year-old has a 3.08 ERA with 107 strikeouts and 57 walks over 122.2 innings with the Giants this season.
With the Giants floundering to a 47-65 record, Ray will now join the Padres' rotation as they attempt to clinch a playoff spot.
