KC Trades:

Albert Almora JR. (CHC) 18: 0.5M / 19: 0.5M / 20: 0.5M / 21: 0.5M
Stephen Piscotty (STL) 18:0.5M / 19: 0.5M

Jon Gray (COL) 18:0.5M / 19: 0.5M / 20: 0.5M

KC reasoning; I made this swap in an effort to remake the roster to a degree.  I might regret trading Gray if he can ever become consistent which he has yet to do.  Although Happ has disappointed the 18 breakout forecasts, I believe in the long term value and pedigree.  Tyson Ross was pretty legit before the injuries and seems to be close to returning to the pre-injury form.  A bit of homerism landed me Polanco at the expense of Almora who was only occupying a bench spot on the roster.  The result of some long but fun back and forth with Tony since I first asked about Happ.  Hopefully it works out for each side.

Good deal with KC and was in the works for awhile. As with KC with polanco, I'm honering for piscotty and actually had a drink last week with almoras father in law. Gambling on gray improving and hoping piscotty can bounce back with some power and almora can keep scoring runs and giving a good average. Hated moving happ but it's the cost of business.
