Philadelphia Astros receive:
Mick Abel (prospect) Stephen Strasburg 21: 15M Austin Slater 21: 2.2M; 22: 2.2M; 23: 2.2M
Cleveland Nationals receive:
Yu Darvish 21: 17M; 22: 37M; 23: 37M
Darvish is a stud, and whilst he is expensive after this year, I'm keen to make one last stab at a comeback! Really sad to give up on Abel, who is a very rare talent, but very much hope he works out for Chuck! There are a range of outcomes, but ace isn't off the table for Abel (unintentional rhyme). Would kick myself if Strasburg rights the ship too, but he was needed to make the salaries work...
(Edited to include Slater)

Agreed. Time to start building for the future. I love Abel's potential as a future Ace for my "Fightin Phils". Darvish is a stud this year and could help the Cleveland Nats contend for a top 3 spot. Nice and easy negotiations with Henry. I hope this trade works out for both teams.
