Rays deal: OF Austin Jackson ($900,000 2018) SF Phillies deal: MILB SP Drew Anderson PHI
Rationale: After trading for Garcia and Herrera this offseason, Jackson was at best gonna be depth for me (and maybe depth for the Giants in the long run) and on a one year deal figured I’d cash in if I could get a piece back I liked. I don’t have much in the way of SP depth at the prospect level so Anderson will hopefully add some depth and potential there.

Agreed.
Simply put, this was about adding a low-risk, good-value outfielder coming off his best season - maybe flying over that wall last year will help keep the hits coming, who knows. And while I expect the Giants will add a higher-profile outfielder soon...well, what if they don't? Even as a 4th, he should outperform his salary.
I have plenty of prospect depth at pitcher and - since I think Anderson is long term bullpen - I view him as expendable with an already-full MLB bullpen and more bullpen arms on my farm.
