Invalid Trade: Angels / Nationals

[Maydab23]

Angels trade

SP Hyun-Jin Ryu.  7M
C Jett Bandy.        440K (arb thru 2021)

Nationals trade

2017 1st rd pick


Angels do this trade because Ryu is no sure thing. If he comes back healthy he is a great value at that price but I'd rather use the roster spot and 7M on a worse but safer player in FA along with having the pick. Bandy looks to be a solid catcher who will get a good amount of playing time and cheap young catchers with some upside are always valuable in AFB but it's the price of doing business.

Nats confirm, I thing Ryu is going to return to form, and I'm a Huge Bandy fan! So for me, this is fantastic, thanks Angels for the smooth deal!!!

The Nationals traded their 2017 1st round pick in August to the Blue Jays.

Good catch Chris, I have learned my lesson now to always make sure the nationals are trading me something they actually have. Off to the scrap pile this trade goes...
