Wow. I am shocked that this finally came together. I didnt think it was going to happen, but Walt came through with the offer and i couldnt say no. Walt is as good as they come, and i know how hard it was for him to make this deal. On my side, I am trading the last remaining prospects I got for moving Logan Gilbert, and I think i turned them into a pretty good player. Obviously, I hope Big Meat Pete signs long term in NY, or this could all come back to hurt.
Over to Walt to confirm.

Confirmed.
Jeff sent me a list of guys he liked, and I initially couldn’t find myself moving Alonso.
But after thinking on it, I decided I couldn’t keep running out a mediocre team with a now newly extended star player like Art Moreno would.
I’m happy with Merrill and the group of kids I was able to get here and I think long term I can pretty much extract similar value to all the players I moved.
Hoping Jeff can get Pete and McNeill a chip for me and great working with him as usual.
