The San Diego Padres, considered frontrunners for Washington Nationals star Juan Soto, won't have one of their biggest trade chips available to them. A report from San Diego Tribune-Union writer Kevin Acee suggests MacKenzie Gore, one of the team's top trade chips, won't pitch again this season. Gore went to the injured list Wednesday with elbow soreness.
