x- $7M Paid on Miller in 2019
Reds Receive:
3B Kelvin Gutierrez (PC w/ 5yr ARB)
P Brent Martin (PC)
OF Oscar Gonzalez (PC)
Cubs agree to this deal. We believe Miller is better than what we saw last season. While it was tough to give up Oscar Gonzalez and his robust power potential, Miller will help us compete this season. Martin is a farm arm who I didn't hold a bunch of confidence on, and Gutierrez, while talented, I actually demoted in order to save service time. Reds to confirm.
