Twins Trade: - Keegan Thompson, CHC P: $801K MiLB - Mitch Garver, MIN C: $3.5M (Arb Est) | Arb 3 | FA
Mets Trade: - Gary Sanchez, NYY C: $7.5M (Arb Est) | FA - Isiah Kiner-Falefa, TEX MI: $5M (Arb Est) | Arb 3-4 | FA
Sanchez is an upgrade over Garver, and while I like Keegan Thompson a lot, I think this could be a buy low window for IKF regardless if he stays with Texas or gets moved to another team. I take on a little bit of salary, but the additional lineup strength is worth it. I will have to hope Sanchez, Bell, or Gallo resigns or I risk losing one (or more) in FA next year, but that's a problem for future Judge to worry about. Quick and easy talks with Walt - over to him to confirm.

Confirmed.
Have a few MI/CI bats and moving IKF for a controllable arm I’m hoping may still have a solid amount of upside to come was worth it.
Swapping Sanchez who is the better hitting catcher for Garver at 1 extra year of control works as well.
Easy chatting with Judge on this one and good luck to him and the Twins…
