Cincinnati Sends:
Carlos Santana 17,000,000 (2021)
Colin McHugh 5,000,000 (2020)
Texas Sends:
Adam Duvall 10,000,000 (2020)
Kolby Allard
David Parkinson
Gabriel Maciel
I accept:
So I like this trade for a number of reasons. Obviously I shed 12M this year, and lose a year on contract obligations during my expected window. On top of that Duvall fills a position of need and maybe there's a chance for a rebound, which some of the numbers look good for him, some don't, either way, he'll help me fill an OF roster slot. Additionally with handsome Adam coming back I think his retained Salary comes off my books, which gives me further money to play around with during negotations.
On the prospect side I feel pretty happy with the return. I like Allard's off-speed stuff, his age and composure, my hope is that his fastball doesn't keep him out of the rotation, still there's something to be said for a 21 year old making the majors. I asked for Parkinson as Allard insurance. David is yet another Phillies pitcher I really like and has a bit of an Allard feel as he's a lefty with a lot of polish and a decent if unspectacular pitch mix, both guys have the ceiling of a 3 or 4. Maciel is a sparkplug but without the power to really move the needle right now, decent enough approach to take a chance on.
Thanks to Joe for another phenomenal trade experience.
