Braves Receive:
Prospects
Colson Montgomery (SS-3B/CHW)
Otto Lopez (2B/TOR) P-N/A
T.J. Sikkema (SP/NYY)

Dodgers Receive
Prospect Diego Cartaya (C/LAD)

Braves doing this to gain depth in the minors and solidify the hopeful future infield with Lopez, who is likely a year or 2 ahead of the curve for his age and Montgomery who could start flying up boards once some power comes in and he shows what he can do over a full minor league season. Sikkema is a bit unknown right now, but does have nice upside as a hopeful starter. Losing Cartaya was difficult, but the deal improves the Braves future outlook.
Thanks LAD

Pls note: Upon approval of deal, the Braves will drop the following players to stay w/in roster compliance:
Connor Wong C/BOS (P-N/A)
John Gant SP/RP-N/A ($1.5M/2022) *ATL accepts any cap penalty for Gant drop for 2022*

$0.5

Blue Jays Receive:
Jose Rodriguez 2B/CHW (P-N/A)
Junior Santos SP/NYM (P-N/A)
Sam Carlson SP/SEA (P-N/A)

Brewers Receive:
Jairo Pomares OF/SF (P-N/A)
Daniel Brito 2B/PHI (P-N/A)
Isaiah Campbell SP-RP/SEA (P-N/A)

Hate seeing Pomares go, but JRod is a legit 2B prospect that hits everything in sight with power and could be on the fast track to Chicago. Carlson and Santos provide the team some nice potential at SP and believe Carlson could be a little underrated while Santos has more eye on his prospect outlook. These talks changed many times but in the end ended up somehow a prospect swap.
Nice dealing BrewCrew
