Astros / Yankees

[Astros GM (Will)]

Astros receive:

3B Eugenio Suarez (B 6/7)
2020: $9.1M
2021: $10.1M

Yankees receive:

2B Yolmer Sanchez (A 7/7)
2020: $5.6M

SS Brayan Rocchio (0/7) - $0.3M
SP Trey Supak (0/7) - $0.3M
C Michael Perez (0/7) - $0.3M
2020 2nd Round Amateur Pick (2.20 - HOU)

This gets me excitingly close to filling out my roster still with quite a bit of cap room left to make some moves in free agency. Even if Suarez doesn’t hit 40 HR’s again this year, he still allows me to use Kris Bryant’s positional flexibility to the fullest.

[Yankees GM (Jacob)]

I am getting a nice haul of specs for Suarez with no coverage on him. Plus a decent draft pick.

[Nationals GM (Tim)]

Approve. Good trade for both sides. That gold glove defense that Sanchez provides is really going to score the Yankees a lot of points.

[D'backs GM (Kyle)]

Approve

[Cubs GM (Tanner)]

Approve. Agree with Tim

[Cardinals GM (Nik)]

Approve

[Rockies GM (Alex)]

I’m going to veto. This isn’t enough for a top 7 or 8 third baseman for two years. Rocchio is a borderline top 150 prospect and he’s the headliner of the deal

[Orioles GM (Michael)]

I’ll veto as well. This is essentially Rocchio and a late 2nd for a 4-point-per-game non-rental.

[Braves GM (Jared)]

So we are talking about the #4 3B on a good contract (even if it ends in two seasons) for a 50FV prospect whose 18, a 27 yr old backup catcher (who I kind of like this year), a 40FV SP (who I also kind of like this year), and a 2nd rounder.

This seems pretty lopsided, and I’ve made some very lopsided trades. The #4 3B should command multiple top 100 guys, if not top 50 guys IMO.

I hardly ever veto, and I like to see teams do what they want, but these seems too one-sided even to me.

Veto
