KC Royals sends: Jameson Taillon CHC (P) (KC to pay 35% of remaining contract) John Schreiber BOS (P) Pick 2.14
Toronto Blue Jays sends: Luisangel Acuna NYM (MI) (milb) Nate Pearson TOR (P) Ryan Weathers SD (P) Pick 2.6
**Acuna will slide directly into KC's milb roster**
I accept. I've been looking to move Taillon for some controllable youth. Acuna checks that box. He's a highly touted prospect on every list I've seen, & he has a lot of tools. If he can be at least half as good as Ronald, I'd probably be happy lol. Should be fun to watch his development. Weathers & Pearson will apply some controllable P depth; both guys are still young enough to hopefully piece things together. The pick upgrade sealed it. I'm happy with this return.
Pleasure talking trade with Alfie. Best of luck to Toronto!

Jays confirm. With this being my first full season I pretty much need to build my rotation from scratch. Taillon should provide decent depth at a reasonable price. Schreiber is a solid bullpen piece. Acuna may come back to haunt me but is the price that needs to be paid. Fun chat with Jonathon on this deal
