The MLB world is currently buzzing with the upcoming Seoul Series. The two game showdown between National League West teams, Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres will kick off the new season. However, there was one player in Dylan Cease who arrived to South Korea way after everyone had already landed.

The right-hander joined the Padres through a trade from the Chicago White Sox on Wednesday. However, by the time he joined, the team’s plane had already taken off for the Asian country.

As a result of this, he had to travel alone across the Pacific Ocean. Despite this there were some who still had not meet him until Saturday afternoon including Xander Bogaerts who trolled him for it. The now second baseman of the Padres claimed he had not come across him the whole day.

I haven't seen him yet.

It was not until the middle of the day when the 28-year-old pitcher joined the team camp in Seoul. His efforts to travel alone paid off as manager Mike Schmidt informed that he would take to the mound in Padres’ second exhibition game on Monday.

Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullu takes hilarious swipe at Dylan Cease joining Padres

The trade of Dylan Cease on Wednesday brought out several emotional reactions from fans. While the supporters of the San Diego Padres were beaming with joy, the Yankee faithful were cursing their luck for missing another pitcher option. And then there were some including Arizona Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo who were not happy with this trade.
I wish the best players would quit coming to the NL West.

This offseason, the NL West has seen a huge number of stars come to them with the Dodgers being one of the heavy spenders. Another reason why Lovullo might not want the best players to come to the NL West is because they themselves play in that division and are seemingly unhappy to see the big names join their division rivals.

This though does not mean that the Diamondbacks have not signed some big names themselves. During the offseason, the 2023 National League Champions added the experience of Eduardo RodriguezEugenio Suarez, and Joc Pederson in hopes of helping them in trying to replicate the success of last season.
