Interesting article about taking on salary from another team in return for a useful piece or prospects with years of control left. The David Price one has been mentioned on numerous sites, and still is the best of the options IMO. Another interesting one is getting Dominic Smith (1B) from the Mets for taking on the Familia contract.
San Diego also desperately wants to rid themselves of Wil Myers (1B and OF). You might not be able to get Macenzie Gore from them as a sweetener, but they have four other solid pitching prospects in their system.
