San Diego Padres pitcher Dylan Cease trade sparks outrage as Padres demand Yankees star Spencer Jones
San Diego Padres pitcher Dylan Cease trade rumors again rang in with the arrival of 2025, with strong connections to the New York Yankees. Although no trade has occurred yet, negotiations have become more heated.
Padres analyst Christian Pedersen recently discussed why he feels a trade involving Dylan Cease being shipped to the Yankees can be successful and even specified the prospects that he desires in exchange. With both teams needing major changes, the deal could pick up steam soon.
Padres analyst demands Spencer Jones in trade offer for Dylan Cease
Christian Pedersen on Padres Digest on Saturday explicitly declared his position: he would be "okay" with letting Dylan Cease go, but for a price.
His proposed destination? The New York Yankees are a team hard-pressed to find healthy pitchers. Pedersen described the Yankees as always thinking they can "fix or tinker with any star," and Cease is one such star.

He feels the Padres would be wise to use this time to strengthen their farm system, which he described as "depleted and lackluster." Pedersen suggested a trade that included the Yankees best prospects namely, Spencer Jones, and either Bryce Cunningham or Ben Hess.

Jones is an exciting outfielder, and Cunningham and Hess are both talented young pitchers.
These are no throwaway names. All three are highly rated and under the age of 25, which makes them long-term franchise assets. Pedersen's suggestion may be unofficial, but it does reflect mounting pressure on the Padres to rebuild and replenish.

MLB Insider thinks Dylan Cease is nearing free agency
As trade rumors intensify, another scenario is on the table. In an article published by The Athletic, MLB insider Dennis Lin stated that Cease is "almost certainly gone."
Why? Cease happens to be represented by Scott Boras, and Boras does not allow top talent to re-sign unless he first fully tests the marketplace. "Every team could use him," Lin stated, indicating high league-wide demand.
Even with all the rumors, Dylan Cease is still with the Padres. To date in 2025, he has appeared in 11 games, has 121 strikeouts, and a 4.62 ERA. Not his best year, but his upside makes him worth having for any team vying for a championship.
Whether or not the Padres trade him prior to the trade deadline, Cease's time in San Diego appears to be running out. If something doesn't materialize soon, the Padres stand to lose him for nothing which is why Christian Pedersen's trade suggestion might not be so far-fetched after all. As summer arrives and the Yankees seek rotation support, everyone is watching Dylan Cease and what the Padres will choose to do next.

Yankee Stadium moment goes viral as young couple appear to engage in explicit s*x act during live game
Yankee Stadium explicit moment. Image via: Getty Images | X Warning: This article contains descriptions of explicit content in a public setting. A shocking video from Yankee Stadium has ignited a social media firestorm, as a young couple, one of whom was wearing Philadelphia Phillies gear, was visibly caught in the middle of a s*x act during a live game. The clip, initially shared on TikTok and later reposted on X, sparked widespread outrage and disbelief. Philadelphia Phillies fans caught in apparent s*x act at Yankee Stadium as stunned onlookers film the incident While the New York Yankees and Philadelphia Phillies faced off in a three-game weekend series, the baseball action was not the only thing that ended up trending. The video, believed to be filmed during one of the afternoon matchups, shows a man in a Phillies jersey and cap seated beside a woman in jean shorts and a tank top. Captured from behind by another fan, the footage appears to show the couple engaging in a se*ual act, right in the middle of a crowded stadium section. Despite the absence of fans directly beside or behind the couple, they were well within view of dozens of nearby spectators. In the original clip, one stunned onlooker is heard saying, "This is f—king insane." The incident happened in the bright light of day. The pair kept their eyes on the game while their hands told another story. A second version of the video surfaced shortly afterward, showing the woman becoming visibly more animated. The man then appears to place his finger in his mouth after the act, a moment that was called out by amused (and horrified) viewers. The stadium reaction was a mix of laughter and complete disbelief. Such explicit activity was not the first and possibly not the last Public se*ual encounters at ballparks are, surprisingly, not unheard of. In 2022, a couple was caught engaging in a similar act at an Oakland Athletics game. A decade earlier, two fans were found having s*x in the bathrooms at Yankee Stadium during a game against the Tampa Bay Rays. And just last year, OnlyFans model Kaylee Killion claimed she and her fiancé had s*x in the parking lot during Super Bowl LVIII. As for the Yankees, they went on to win Sunday's finale 4-3, though the Phillies claimed the series overall. The team has yet to release a statement regarding the incident, and it remains unclear whether the couple involved will face any consequences.

Depleted Braves acquire pitcher Carlos Carrasco from Yankees for cash considerations
NEW YORK (AP) — The New York Yankees traded veteran pitcher Carlos Carrasco to the depleted Atlanta Braves on Monday for cash considerations. HT Image The Braves acquired Carrasco a day after losing Grant Holmes to right elbow inflammation on Sunday. Holmes was originally placed on the 15-day injured list but moved to the 60-day IL after Erick Fedde was acquired from the St. Louis Cardinals. With the news involving Holmes, all five of Atlanta's opening day rotation are on the 60-day injured list. Atlanta lost at Texas 8-1 Sunday, has dropped five in a row and is 12 games behind in the NL wild-card race. Carrasco was 2-2 with a 5.91 ERA in eight games for the Yankees, who started him six times before designating him for assignment on May 6. Carrasco was in spring training on a minor league deal and could have opted out but he was re-signed after posting a 1.69 ERA in five spring training outings, including four starts. After accepting his assignment to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes Barre, the 38-year-old right-hander was 4-2 with a 3.27 ERA in 11 games (10 starts) and was 4-0 with a 2.23 ERA in five July starts. Originally acquired by the Cleveland Guardians from the Phillies for Cliff Lee in July 2009, Carrasco is 112-105 with a 4.18 ERA in 332 games (283) starts for Cleveland, the New York Mets and Yankees. He led the American League in wins in 2017 when he was 18-6 with Cleveland and also was named the 2019 AL Comeback Player of the Year following a return from leukemia. The Yankees made their third trade since Friday after acquiring Ryan McMahon from the Rockies and Amed Rosario from the Nationals. ___ AP MLB:
