Astros/Phillies Trade

[Astros GM (Will)]

Astros receive:


Carlos Gonzalez (2016: $17M, 2017: $20M)
Jose Quintana (2016: $5M, 2017: $5M)

Phillies receive:

Shelby Miller (Arb A 4/7, $10.1M)
Cody Allen (Arb A 4/7, $11M)
Tyler Matzek (Pre-Arb 2/7, $0.8M)
Nick Vincent (Pre-Arb 3/7, $0.8M)

I'm trading some pitching depth from the rotation and bullpen to acquire a nice OF anchor in Gonzalez who put together a full season last year to help alleviate some concerns of the injury bug, and a quality SP in Quintana whose 2016-2017 projections I can really believe in. The deal has about equal money so it will allow me to diversify my FA spending a little more rather than dipping too heavily into the OF market.

[Phillies GM (Zach)]

I accept.

I'm getting 4 pitchers which is the area of my team I wanted to upgrade the most. I have plenty of OF depth to replace CarGo. Great trading Will.
