Andrew Benitendi
2016 8th round pick
Boston Padres Trade:
Grant Holmes
Hunter Renfroe
2016 Pick #11

Made the trade because I think there are still some solid prospects available at #11 and because Renfroe and Holmes both have a ton of fantasy upside and are likely already top 100 (or top 50) prospects. Plus Renfroe is close and can probably help in 2016, whereas Benitendi is a year or two away. Got 2 top 50-100 guys for sliding down 6 spots in the draft.

In the interest of keeping the draft moving, pending Scott's acceptance and declaration of love for Benintendi, co-commish approved

Agreed.
I love Benintendi. Would've taken him ahead of Moncada if I could've. I think he'll reach Boston before Moncada does. Holmes and Renfroe are two great talents that should help Chris out sooner than later, but it's worth the gamble for me. Plus he threw in an 8th round pick which I'm confident I can find someone decent at that spot in the draft.
