Didn’t give up a top 15 prospect AA the GOAT

 

[TBrown]

Phillips and Zimmerman?

Wooooooooooow

 

[PainDocVol]

ouch on Zimmerman

 

[PainDocVol]

we happy with this?

 

[mr.checkerboards]

Not mad at that

 

[zjcvols]

We got an at worst #4 starter with more years of control for our third best catching prospect, a mid round soft tossing lefty, and a dime a dozen bullpen arm. Unbelievable

 

[zjcvols]

we happy with this?

ENTHRALLED

 

[TBrown]

Man... the price for Archer vs the price for Gausman

 

[NochNoch]

Pretty much what Z was saying (although all caps enthralled might be pushing it)

 

[TBrown]

Idk how great Gausman will be but I’m legitimately speechless that that trade was completed.

 

[Kingston Vol]

Someone also threw out Gausman may be used as a relief guy some too to allow the young guys to get work.

 

[zjcvols]

Looks like we did actually send s decent piece, Encarnacion but also got Darren O’Day. Still didn’t give up a top 15 prospect.

 

[GAVol]

Looks like a good deal.

 

[TBrown]

This was freaking masterful. Made moves to help them team, inject a solid shot of morale, continue playing winning baseball without mortgaging a single piece. AA played “one year early to the party” perfectly

 

[zjcvols]

 

[mr.checkerboards]

I’m seeing on twitter that we got O day as well and JC Encarnacion was sent as well

 

[mr.checkerboards]

You beat me to it

 

[TBrown]

O’Day is out for the year but signed thru 2019

 

[AV_12]

JCE tho

 

[GAVol]

O’Day is out for the year but signed thru 2019

Shanks loves that part of the deal.

 

[AV_12]

AV gonna be so sad

Buddy of mine ruined it texting me lol

 

[zjcvols]

O’Day is out for the year but signed thru 2019

Replaces Brach next year. Perfect.

 

[zjcvols]

JCE tho

He’s got pop but don’t know if he can play 3B and never walks. Gotta give up a little something

 

[GAVol]

Got better and the rebuild is intact.
