The Phillies and the A's have come to terms on an agreement:
A's receive:
MI Hill, Aaron, $3m (2014)
OF McCutchen, Andrew, $0.5m (P-2012)
OF Gardner, Brett, $0.5m (P-2012)
Phillies receive:
OF Fowler, Dexter, $0.5m (P-2012)
OF Coghlan, Chris, $0.5m (P-2012)
MI Escobar, Yunel, $6.5m (2012)
A's pay 3.5m for Escobar in 2011, 2m for 2012.
CI Parker, Stephen, $0.5m (P-n/a)
It was really really hard to trade McCutchen but I feel like I got a good return. If Coghlan stays healthy and he and Fowler continue to produce I feel its a solid deal for me. I favor Escobar slightly over Hill and I feel like I got a good prospect in Parker. Time will tell if I made the right move but I feel like its a solid deal between two good GM's.
Thanks Rob for the negotiations! Very professional and I appreciate it!
A's to confirm.
