Brewers receive: Jeff Samardzija (his 2017 salary retained by Tigers)
Tigers receive: Luis Ortiz, Brandon Woodruff and Freddy Peralta
I need a pitcher who can get me some GS down the stretch. Samardzija is a horse with a good K/9 who, despite his rough ERA this year, is an upgrade over most of my current starters. I like the young arms I gave up, but I'm in contention now. Hopefully getting Samardzija for a stretch run works out better for me than it did for Billy Beane.

Detroit accepts!
I'm obviously in a rebuild, So this deal will free up cap space in the years going forward. I'm not thrilled to see Samardzija go by any means but I am very excited to be getting 3 quality pitching prospects. Luis Has all the stuff to be a front rotation starter some day, Woodruff induces a lot of ground balls and withe this juiced ball era (irony realized) I think franchises will take extra care to develop these types of guys. and Freddy Peralta has a high ceiling of potential.

+10 Brewers as this isn't just a one year rental, and the 2018-19 salary of $10 MM is pretty low-impact. I've got to disagree with Ortiz's frontline potential, but otherwise feel it's a decent, but not great return for Samardzija

Woodruff is good, Ortiz is a 3 or 4 and Peralta ugh.
Samardzjia is a candidate for getting to the mean. Seeing his FIP, BABIP, and walk rate state he's been getting unlucky. I would've traded for him, but I wouldn't of gave him one top 100 and he gave him two!
+10 Tigers

I'd say a +5 for the Tigers...two top 100 prospects on paper are nice value for Samardzjia though I don't know if either has star upside. Peralta's a nice third piece, his K/IP numbers this year are insane.
