Orioles trade:
OF Charlie Blackmon 18: $15.4M (7 of 7 - A)
RP Wade Davis 18: $9M
1B Greg Bird 18: $800k (3 of 7)
SP Luis Gohara 18: $300k
OF Jason Martin $300k
Rockies trade:
OF Aaron Judge 18: $800k (2 of 7)
1B Edwin Encarnacion 18: $25M, 19: $25M
I add a franchise cornerstone in Judge to build around for years to come, and also get a more proven commodity at first base in Encarnacion. Rockies add a fairly equal caliber fantasy outfielder in Blackmon, but trade in long term control to add a top closer in Davis, a top young arm in Gohara, and a promising young outfielder in Martin. Also adds longer term, cheaper control at first base in the form of Bird, who if healthy could be just as productive as EE next year.
Appreciate your patience in working out this blockbuster over the last week, Alex! Hope the deal works out for both of us.
