ATL Braves // Boston Red Sox

[Deleted]

ATL Braves send: 

TB Rays 1st rounder
Luke Weaver ($ 2,875,000, ARB) 

for 

Tyler Anderson (on a 50% buydown: $1,875,000) 
Trevor Williams (500k)


Shipping out a first round pick for some pitching talent. I have been embarrassingly bad pitching wise this year and pick these guys up as 5th and 6th line help. I do not expect Anderson's success to continue but they do serve as a bridge to DeGrom's return. 

Ez chats with Boston Boss Kevin. 

Thanks and he will confirm.

This trade was all about getting a 1st for guys who aren’t in my long-term plans.

Nice easy talks with Matt.

[Athletics GM (Jared)]

Tyler Anderson cannot be bought down. See constitution article VIII.4.c…first year of a free agent contract.

I will take the full contract.
