Astros/Yankees

[Astros GM (Will)]

Yankees receive:

P Brian Howard - $0.3M (prospect)

Astros receive:

P Ty Buttrey - $0.3M (prospect)
OF Jake McCarthy - $0.3M (prospect)

This was agreed on as MiLB pick 2.17 + McCarthy for Brian Howard. I really wanted to add some bodies, and probably the only way to do that was with an SP prospect whom I really liked in Howard. Thanks for the trade negotiations, Jerry.


Yankees GM (Jerry) to confirm.

Seems like an overpay for Brian Howard... but they're all just prospects I suppose. Approve.

[Orioles GM (Michael)]

This is a non-veto (because #prospects) that, once it plays out, will be eligible for a retroactive veto once Buttrey locks down the closing gig. With Yankees trying to compete, not sure why they're handing over a likely closer and more for a so-so pitching prospect. Approve.

[Nationals GM (Tim)]

Less nonsense posts and more draft picking posts
