TB / PHI Pt. 3

[Rays GM (Bailey)]

TB sends: 
Dylan Dodd, SP (ATL) - Prospect

PHI sends:
Kirby Yates, RP (ATL) - 23: $2.1M
2024 Minors Draft PHI 2nd

TB Logic:
After our previous trade, Tony asked if I was in the market for more RP, and I sure am. Dodd made a strong impression on me during Spring Training, and I like having him for SP depth, but I’m looking to bolster the ‘pen, so I am happy to roll the dice on Yates.

Nice working with Tony again, thanks and good luck!

[Phillies GM (Tony)]

as in the last few hours, good talks with bailey. taking a gamble on dodd becoming serviceable for a reliever.
