Angels Trade
C Josh Phegley 900K (2019)
P Matt Shoemaker 4.125M (2019)
2M in salary coverage towards Shoemakers salary
Brewers Trade
P Frank Lopez PC
Angels do this trade to clear some salary cap space in order to call up players for the playoffs. Losing the catcher depth in Phegley will hurt but having the space to call up some of my prospects will more than make up for it. Lopez is filler/18yo lotto ticket but really this trade is just about clearing a bit of cap space.
Thanks to Vic for quick negotiations as we both try to get ready for the playoffs
