TB sends:
Casey Martin, MI/CI (PHI) - Prospect
Taj Bradley, P (TB) - Prospect
STL sends:
Ivan Herrera, C (STL) - Prospect
Jordan Walker, CI (STL) - Prospect
2022 FYPD 3rd Round Pick (SEA)
TB Logic:
I like Herrera. Wasn’t sure if it made sense to get him since I already have Varsho and Hernandez, but I figured Herrera will be an insurance policy if Varsho becomes a full-time outfielder. I like getting Walker too; he’s far away but could be a good power bat. This trade was tough because I really like Martin. I think he has the most upside of any player in the trade. He raked at Arkansas, and I think his skills will translate to the pros. Not sure where he ends up defensively, but all that matters is that he hits. As for Bradley, I think he’s gonna rise up the rankings this upcoming MiLB season. He’s a Rays pitcher that I like a lot.
Pleasure matching up with Chris and the Cardinals again - thanks for the smooth talks.
