X-SP De La Rosa, Jorge, Cash Exchange, $2.5m in 2017
Although Wilmer Flores is a reliable CI, he is not an integral part of the FGM Giants roster. That said, Steve Duggar, although injured earlier in the year, is a young OF who has shown every indication that he could be a very productive player for the San Francisco Giants as early as 2018. Unfortunately, the Giants are a MLB team with aging OFs who are slipping (one of whom is on my current roster).
Realistically, the Giants are barely hanging onto a Wild Card berth, and have consistently lost to the NL teams with better records. So, even the most optimistic person would say, the Giants chances of advancing do not hinge on the production of the two players that are being traded away. However, with an eye on the future, Steve Duggar offers a greater potential to build on and is worth the risk.
This trade fills a need for both teams. Angels need to confirm.

Angels confirm. We have a need at MI with Correa's injury and Swanson's lack of success this year. Flores will fill that need and hopefully help us lock up a wildcard spot. De La Rosa is not being counted on for much, but we will deploy him in the RP rotation and make a decision on him for next year.
While Duggar is a fine player - and I believe will be a successful one in the MLB, he was stuck behind some more highly touted OF prospects in our system, so we dealt from our depth to acquire a needed piece for the playoff push.
Good dealing with you, Ernie!
In order to open roster space for this trade, the Angels release Cody Dickson and option Andrew Suarez to the minors.
