Well thats a doosy of pitcher package going out the door. I've been looking for a SP to pair with Wheeler atop the rotation but I didn't expect to be able to pick up an ace like Verlander. He needs an extension which is forth coming, but given how Verlander is projected to pitch its worth while to give him premium dollars. The picthing package is serious, despite some evaluations, Nelson may well break out this year and that will make two MLB 3/4 types in Civale and Nelson going over, plus a minimum 3 good RP or a 3rd starter depending on how the Yankees treat King this year.
C Garcia is a nice piece to have for depth, I don't have very much C depth in the high minors after trading away Nola earlier this week, so Garcia is good insurance in case either of my guys get hurt this season.
It will be very interesting to revisit this one in a couple years to see how the pitchers turned out.

1B Joey Votto
2020 20m (20m cash from CIN)
2021 20m (10m cash from CIN)
2022 20m (10m cash from CIN)
2023 20m (10m cash from CIN)

I need a 1B to pair with Garrett, Adams just doesn't cut it. After the money going back and forth I'm getting Votto for 4 years and about 3m total. So of course that costs me a good prospect situation. Brosseau sucks to lose, I kept him down last season to keep a year of eligibility so it'll be sad to seem him go. The other are interesting but worth paying for Votto, who had a hiccup but will likely keep it together for at least 2 more seasons.
