The Cardinals hopes for claiming a series win over the Padres was put on hold Saturday night as San Diego limited St. Louis to just three hits in its 3-1 victory.

Buster Olney of ESPN reported that starting pitcher Dylan Cease could be available at the MLB trade deadline. San Diego is open to moving its All-Star pitcher, especially in a market thin on front-line starters.

The San Diego Padres are set to be aggressive buyers at the trade deadline, but there's a chance they make some moves to sell at the same time.
