KC Marlins / Texas Giants Trade

[Jeff (KC Marlins)]

KC Trades:

• Korey Lee - C - HOU
• Randy Arozarena - OF - TB
• Corey Kluber - SP - BOS
• Jorge Barrosa - OF - ARZ
• Cayden Wallace - 3B - KC

to the Giants for:

• JT Realmuto - C - PHIL
• Tommy Pham - OF - NYM
• Lizandro Rodriguez - 2B - KC -- who was just drafted this current round and hasn't been added to the Giants roster yet.

My catching room is a wasteland.  Love adding JTR.   We had been discussing Kluber for a few days - and then when Houston drafted Lizandro last night we switched up the deal we'd been discussing.  Happy to get JTR and this prospect.  Pham is a cap move.  Houston had interest in my recently drafted Wallace this draft and wanted Kluber for this year.  Arozarena is the main price i'm paying for JTR.

Confirm.
Realmuto is 23-25: 15M
Pham is 23: 10.8M

Lee is 23-26: 500K
Arozarena is 23-25: 500K
Kluber is 23: 2.25M

Realmuto is a heavy price to give up, but the top tier talent coming back in this trade is easily a win for my team. I feel confident in Langeliers, Lee and Soderstrom in the minors to carry my catching staff. Thanks to Jeff for fun debate back and forth and a deal that supports both teams goals!
