The Orioles are reportedly talking to the Padres about both Melvin Upton and Andrew Cashner, but these would be separate trades, not in one big mega-deal.
The Orioles and the Padres have had their names come up a lot together in the last couple of days. There seems to be a lot to talk about. Along with the late Friday night crazy rumor of a possible Melvin Upton for Ubaldo Jimenez (and a prospect) trade, the O’s are talking about a separate deal for Padres starter Andrew Cashner.
That’s according to Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports, who adds that the Padres want two prospects in return for Cashner.
