2024 fourth round pick
$1.5M international funds
KC makes this trade to roll the dice on Boston continuing its trend of turning relievers into starters in the Houck-Crawford-Whitlock mold. Slaten throws upper 90?s heat and I believe he?s got the potential to be a back end starter someday. For a fourth rounder and INT money I?m going to move all of anyway it?s worth the gamble.
