The San Diego Padres may see significant changes this offseason, with key players like Luis Arraez, Robert Suarez, Ryan OHearn, Michael King, and Dylan Cease potentially leaving through free agency. This could necessitate a rebuild of their roster, particularly their pitching staff, to maintain competitiveness. If both Cease and King depart, the Padres will need to focus on their starting rotation. Given their financial constraints, theyll likely seek cost-effective deals to add talent. Andy McCullough from The Athletic suggests free agent pitcher Chris Bassitt from the Toronto Blue Jays as a potential fit. Bassitt, known for his durability and consistent performance, could bring stability to the Padres rotation, having won at least ten games in six of the last seven seasons. His versatility and veteran presence would be a valuable asset for a team aiming for annual contention.
