I do this to clear out some cap space next year. I like DeSclafani but his contract isn't worth his production. Ethier is probably a bench bat at best at this stage of his career. I get a couple pitchers that may or may not do anything but I'm happy with the cash savings the next two years. Thanks Flash for the negotiations!
NOTE: In anticipation of this trade's imminent approval, the respective ProFSL rosters of each team have been updated to reflect the changes for both teams. All that has to be done is to Fantrax the trade following the games on 8/6/17.
