The San Diego Padres lost to the Los Angeles Dodgers, 6-3, on Monday night. The Friars fell to 39-32 on the year.

Ahead of the contest, veteran Yu Darvish was moved to the 60-day injured list. The right-hander is continuing to deal with the elbow inflammation that has bothered him since spring training. He had already been out 60 days, so the move was just a formality.

Additionally, the Padres reportedly inquired about Rafael Devers before the Boston Red Sox star was traded to the San Francisco Giants. The divisional rivals were more 'motivated' to strike a deal with the American League squad.

Finally, a trade idea is seen with the New York Yankees as a Friars All-Star has been linked to the Bronx. The Yankees are looking to avenge a World Series loss, but the Padres aren't planning to stop short of their October goal as well.
