Los Angeles Angels and Dodgers Trade

[Brent]

The Angels and Dodgers agree to the following trade.  The Angles are in a complete rebuild mode as I took over a franchise that was in horrible shape.  We gain two specs from the SF organization in Crick who is shaping up to be a big time power pitcher and this monster of an OF in Mac Williamson who looks to have tons of power.  We also add a current MLB bat in Agonz as we don't really have any MLB hitters.  The Dodgers gain another SP in Grienke and two RPs that get a ton of FPG from the RP position, a position where the Dodgers are weak.  Stauffer is also possibly moving back to the rotation.  This trade is good for both of us as it fits in our teams respective plans.  Money is even in this deal.  Dodgers to confirm. 


OF Williamson, Mac, $0.5m (P-n/a)
SP Crick, Kyle, $0.5m (P-n/a)
CI Gonzalez, Adrian, $19m (2015)

for

RP Axford, John, $2.5m (2014)
SP Greinke, Zack, $11m (2017)
SP Stauffer, Tim, $5.5m (2015)

Dodgers confirm.
Greinke will solidify the rotation and is locked up at a "reasonable" price until 2017. Axford will eat up some innings out of the pen which is where I'm vulerable.
Losing Agonz is a big hit but I need the pitching for the stretch run. Crick is also a sacrifice but I feel I have some pitching depth on the farm. The same goes with Williamson.
Thanks Brent for the negotiations, it was a lot of fun!

In a hitters league this trade is Terribly one sided.  That said managers are happy and Greinke is filling a push this year.

I agree with Rob. The worse team is getting the hitters at least

Transaction invalid. LAD cannot meet monetary obligations without Cash Exchange due on Gonzalez' contract.
We are currently renegotiating. If successful we'll need re-approval from the TC.
Thanks for your patience!
