Title: Dodgers - Phillies Trade
Post by: papps on June 05, 2011, 01:08:04 PM
The Dodgers and Phillies have agreed to a deal:

Dodgers get:
CI Howard, Ryan, $18m (2014)
Phillies pay 6m in 2011, 8m in 2012 and 2013, 6m in 2014
OF Fowler, Dexter, $0.5m (P-2012)

Phillies get:   
C Ruiz, Carlos, $6.5m (2012)
OF Brown, Domonic, $0.5m (P-n/a)
CI Wallace, Brett, $0.5m (P-2013)

Wow.  I can't believe I traded Howard lol.  I give up a ton of money in this deal but I feel I get a solid return.  I hold Brown in high regard and I'm hoping now more then ever that he lives up to what he is supposed to be.  If he does I feel I got a good deal here.  If he doesn't I won't be happy for a while.  Wallace is a decent player with upside.  I really needed a catcher as well.  If Wallace and Brown produce then the money I am spending on Howard is worth it.  It is a risk I'm willing to take.

Thanks Howe for the long negotiations.  I'm glad we were finally able to agree.

Dodgers to confirm.

Agreed. One of my mandates is to upgrade the CI spot. Getting Howard at a reduced rate is a good first step. Giving up Brown is tough but I want to win now.

Brown and Wallace's upside offset the money being exchanged, in my opinion.

Big gamble by the Phils, let's see if it pays off.

I'll approve.
