Reds Trade:
Freddy Valdez, OF - MiLB contract
Pirates Trade:
Phillip Evans, Utility - 2 years of team control & 3 years of arbitration. Will be a free agent following the 2025 season
Reds move a prospect with several years of development left for a cheap controllable asset. Valdez may become a very powerful hitting outfielder but, when you can get a very cheap and talented hitter you take it. Hoping Evans can work his way into the lineup consistently as a utility man this season, especially in the middle infield where he spent a lot of innings in the minor leagues. Just hoping he is able to bounce back from his broken jaw last season.
