CHW receive: Kyle Cody, Andrew Moritz, Joe Palumbo, Andrew Stevenson. TEX receives: Wellington Castillo (5 million retained through 2019), JB Bukakukas, Jhonathon Diaz.
I wanted to rid a little of Wellingtons contract obligation, so I can spend a little more in FA. I believe Bukaukas is a reliever and those are easier to find. Kyle Cody is a potential rotation piece and Moritz has a chance to reach the big leagues. The big parts of this trade are Palumbo and Stevenson. Palumbo is a potential 2 or 3 and Stevenson could be a regular soon. I have Cervelli and Diaz, so my catching is good this year. Makes sense for me.
Good working with you again, Joe.

Texas accepts. I need a catcher even if my catching group is taking up a good portion of my salary. I was able to have him eat 5 million for Stevenson, and I gained Bukakuas, who if traded can be a starter. I think he can be a closer if he stays in Houston, so it's worth a risk on my side.
I'm a big Cody fan, If he is healthy, he's a stud and a potential top 100. Palumbo is exactly the same, if healthy, he's a stud. Moritz is a young gun who had a good start to his career. He's a flyer. So, it makes sense. Thanks, Taron.
