Cubs trade:
OF Martin, Leonys, $0.5m (2019)
Giants trade:
SP Paxton, James, $2.5m (2020)
X-SP Paxton, James, Cash Exchange, $2.0m In 2018
Cubs agree to the trade. Martin is looking really good healthy again and leading off for the Tigers, but I have tons of OF. Paxton can't seem to put together a full season for the life of him, but can be very good when he's healthy so I'm willing to take the risk on him. Maybe him and Otani can make a full starter's worth of IP. And I'm not at all happy with my depth at SP so I think this is a win-win. Thanks for the smooth negotiations Flash.
