Padres Turned Down Warren-for-Morejon Swap With Yankees
San Diego declined a trade offer from New York that would have exchanged starter Will Warren for left-handed setup man Adrian Morejon.
The San Diego Padres rejected a trade proposal from the New York Yankees that would have sent starting pitcher Will Warren to San Diego in exchange for left-handed reliever Adrian Morejon. The deal fell through after the Padres declined the offer. Morejon is considered a valuable bullpen asset for San Diego, while Warren has been a rotation piece for New York. The failed negotiation leaves both players with their current clubs for now.
