The Twins are sending left-hander Taylor Rogers and outfielder Brent Rooker to the Padres, sources said.

Paddack, 26, impressed in San Diego as a rookie in 2019, going 9-7 with a 3.33 ERA. But he's struggled since

Paddack offers some depth, which could be key considering Archer is coming off another injury-ravaged season and Bundy had a plus-6.00 ERA in 2021 with the Angels.

The Padres have a wealth of arms, with Yu Darvish, Joe Musgrove, Blake Snell and Martinez leading the charge at the start of the spring and then Sean Manaea coming aboard earlier this month
