A little trade-and-flip kind of deal here. I've been exploring ways to improve my roster and as much as I like Chris Rodriguez, I think this deal makes up for his production in the bullpen and gives my lineup a boost while trimming a little fat from my roster and budget. I really dig Harold Ramirez in particular and his power/speed combo. I'm confident his tools can lead to more than a brief flirtation with relevance; we'll see if he pans out. Easy talks with both Peter and Jeff. Over to them to confirm!

[Mariners GM (Jeff)]

Mariners confirm. Happy to get another good pitcher in the stable! Happy to trade 2 BP pieces to make it happen! Thanks and good luck to both of the other teams involved!

[Tigers GM (Peter)]

Tigers accept.

Excited to add CRod to the stable and hope for many health controllable years. Ramirez and Minor both wanted out of these hellish playing conditions, so we were happy to grant their wish of joining a contender. We’ll take back a couple of other flip candidates, cause why not.

Great chatting with the Padres as always!
