Losing both Dylan Cease and Yu Darvish for 2026 leaves the Padres with a huge gap in their starting rotation, but there’s a clever fix on the table: Lucas Giolito. After a strong comeback season, Giolito could be the affordable, reliable arm San Diego needs—especially with the team watching its budget. If the Padres pull this off, it could free up resources to keep key players like Luis Arráez or Jake Cronenworth. Imagine a rotation with King, Musgrove, Pivetta, and Giolito—suddenly, things look a lot brighter. Would you take a chance on Giolito to help stabilize the Padres’ future? #Sports #Baseball #Padres
