The San Diego Padres have agreed to acquire pitcher Mike Clevinger in a blockbuster deal with the Cleveland Indians, sources told ESPN.
Right-hander Cal Quantrill, shortstop Gabriel Arias, outfielder Josh Naylor and catcher Austin Hedges are all going back to Cleveland in the deal, sources told ESPN's Jeff Passan. Naylor will immediately slot in to left field.
The hard-throwing Clevinger represents the front-line starting pitcher long coveted by the Padres, who have won seven of their last 10 games and are 5 games behind the first-place Dodgers in the NL West.
The deal marks the fifth trade since Saturday for the Padres, who have also acquired first baseman Mitch Moreland from Boston, catcher Austin Nola from Seattle, catcher Jason Castro from the Angels and closer Trevor Rosenthal from Kansas City.
Clevinger, 29, is 42-22 with a 3.20 ERA and 584 strikeouts in just 523 1/3 career innings over four-plus seasons with the Indians. He was demoted to the minors earlier this season after breaking coronavirus-related rules with teammate Zach Plesac.
Clevinger now figures to head a talented Padres rotation that also includes right-handers Chris Paddack and Dinelson Lamet.
