Jays/Brewers Trade

[Vik]

Jays Trade:

SP Jordan Balazovic
SP Joey Wentz
3B Brett Baty
OF Micah Bello
2B Edouard Julien

Brewers Trade:

SP Max Fried $3.5m (2024)
SP Yaifer Perdomo
OF Leugim Castillo
Round 10 (18)
Round 10 (29)


Not easy to move Fried as he was a key part of my success and just hitting his prime coming off a huge second half last year. However, I feel like return here is worth it. I don't have a many big impact prospects so adding a few here should help long term, especially with current MLB squad mostly on tail end of careers. Baty and Balazovic are the 2 I am most excited about and assuming season plays out normally good chance both will be up at somepoint.

As a new owner on  rebuilding team, sometimes you have to take chances to move forward. That is exactly what I am doing here. I am dealing for a solid pitcher then taking a shot with the 10th round picks as well as with Yaifer Perdomo who is a 20 y/o pitcher in the Backs system who shows promise. LG Castillo is possibly a tad underrated yet he does have the possibility of at least being a utility man in the Bigs if not a little more. While this is a risky deal for the Jays, the Draft is where it could be for the Jays and taking chances on some prospects will be in order.
