While the SF Giants are one of several contenders leading the chase for starting pitching at this year’s MLB trade deadline, their two biggest rivals, the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres, are involved in trade discussions surrounding Minnesota Twins ace Jose Berrios, according to a report by MLB Network’s Jon Morosi. Berrios could easily be the best starting pitcher moved this summer, and has an additional year of team control via arbitration after this season.
