Yankees-Padres Morejon Trade Talks Collapse
San Diego and New York explored a swap centered on Will Warren and a prospect for reliever Adrian Morejon, but negotiations broke down.
The Yankees and Padres engaged in trade discussions involving pitcher Will Warren and an unnamed prospect going to San Diego in exchange for reliever Adrian Morejon. The talks ultimately did not result in a deal. The Padres view Morejon alongside Miller as central to their postseason hopes, suggesting they were reluctant to move him without the right return. The failed negotiation signals San Diego's high valuation of Morejon and the Yankees' interest in bullpen upgrades.
