Chicago Jays/ Boston Padres Trade

[Drew (Chicago Blue Jays)]

Chicago Jays trade:
Omar Narvaez C MIL 20- 4M, 21- 4M
Prospect Cal Raleigh C SEA

to Boston Padres for:
Isan Diaz IF MIA 20-23: 500K
Luis Rengifo IF LAA 20-23: 500K

Reasoning: With Grandal and Will Smith, I have two solid starters at catcher. I decided to take a risk on some upside in the MI from Diaz and to a lesser extent Rengifo. I hate to give up the nice upside that Raleigh brings, but that was the cost of doing business. Best of luck to Scott!

Agreed. In the midst of a major rebuild (was trying to do this in 2019 too), I definitely need help in the catcher area. Narvaez's move to Milwaukee could be good for him but that's a question mark and risk I'll take. I like Raleigh as an up and coming (sooner than later) catcher in Seattle.

Diaz and Rengifo both had to be promoted as they're no longer MiLB eligible and I just didn't know that I was going to have room for them on my 40-man. Hope they help Drew out.
