Dodgers trade
SP Josh Fleming $600,000 2026
Tigers trade
1B Matt Beaty $636,000 2024
What I really needed to fill my roster was a cheap, part time hitter with no position defensively, since the only ones I have now are JD Davis, Willie Calhoun, and Luke Raley. So when I saw that Beaty may be available, I jumped at the chance. But what to offer in trade? Well how about a cheap, part time pitcher that is neither a starter or a reliever? Perfect. Thanks for the quick and easy trade Matt.

Agreed, Beaty's going back to LA . When I traded for Beaty along with another prospect, it was for a handful of mid to low draft picks. Beaty hasn't lived up to expectations, and now I worry he is getting labeled as a "Bench Bat" at best. However "The other prospect" has smashed expectations so that trade is a wash. I think Fleming has some very interesting tools, the kind that if he puts it all together will make him a front rotation guy (with a team that has a reputation of helping pitchers do that and is in a circumstance where they may want to give flemeing time.) but at worst all those tools would make him an interesting RP. All in all, 1B/OF is not a position I need depth in.
