The San Diego Padres acquired left-hander Sean Manaea from the Oakland Athletics on Sunday.
The Padres also received right-hander Aaron Holiday in the trade in exchange for fellow prospects Euribiel Angeles and Adrian Martinez.
Manaea, who joins a rotation that includes Yu Darvish, Blake Snell, Mike Clevinger and Joe Musgrove, posted an 11-10 record with a 3.91 ERA in 32 starts last season with Oakland.
Just hours after the trade was announced, Manaea started for the Padres against Oakland and gave up one run and six hits over 3 2/3 innings. He struck out four and walked one while wearing his green A’s glove.
Manaea had been scheduled to pitch Sunday and the Padres decided to keep him on schedule.
“I was thinking of having him pitch in an A’s uniform with a Padres hat,” said San Diego manager Bob Melvin, who was Oakland’s manager prior to this season.
Oakland won the contest 8-2 at Mesa, Ariz.
The 30-year-old Manaea sports a 50-41 record with a 3.86 ERA in 129 appearances (128 starts) with the Athletics. He threw a no-hitter against the Boston Red Sox on April 21, 2018.
Holiday, 21, owned a 2-0 record with a 0.00 ERA in 5 2/3 innings over three relief appearances last season with the Athletics of the Arizona Complex League.
Angeles, 19, is the Padres’ No. 12 prospect, per MLB Pipeline. The infielder competed with Lake Elsinore of Low-A West and Fort Wayne of High-A Central last season, batting .330 in 105 games.
Martinez, 25, is the Padres’ No. 26 prospect, per MLB Pipeline. The right-hander went 8-5 with a 3.38 ERA in 26 games (22 starts) last season with Double-A San Antonio and Triple-A El Paso.
The deal came as MLB.com reported Sunday that Clevinger likely will begin the year on the injured list with knee soreness. The 31-year-old right-hander missed all of last season after undergoing Tommy John surgery.
