CHC sends:
Eric Fedde, P, WAS
Jorge Lopez, P, MIL
Chris DeVito, 1B, KC
4.23 AMAT pick (acquired from WAS)
BOS sends:
Paul DeJong, SS, STL
This gives me an equally-talented replacement for Marcus Semien at SS if injury or poor performance strike again. Adding young, controllable MI depth has been one of my main efforts so far and I think it's been a philosophy that has paid dividends between Happ, Taylor, Semien, and now DeJong (and hopefully soon in Shed Long).
Giving up Fedde was not easy to do as I still think he is likely a mid-rotation arm (which my rotation certainly needs) but I don't see him contributing as frequently in 2018 as DeJong. Hopefully DeJong doesn't go full Aledmys Diaz on me. Chris Devito has monster power but tons of concerns about the defense and to a lesser extent hit tool, but he is a prospect who will be underrated for fantasy. He was the last player included during the negotiations and a pretty shrewd request by Phillip IMO.
