TB sends: Nate Lowe, CI (TEX) - 24: $8.8M; 25-26: ARB Rowdy Tellez, CI (FA) - 24: $1M
LAA sends: 2024 Minors Draft Pick 1.17 2024 Minors Draft Pick 3.14 2025 Minors Draft 2nd Round Pick 2025 Minors Draft 3rd Round Pick
Tampa Bay Logic: Lowe was an original member of my dynasty team, who I then traded away, traded back for, and am now trading away again. Feels like he is a tough player for me to value. I think he has a pretty safe floor as a Top 10 1B, but I also might prefer to utilize his salary elsewhere. The picks I am getting for him will take a year or two to materialize their value, but I am hoping to find the right player at #1.17. As for Tellez, he hit 35 HR in 2022 and then got bit by the injury bug this past season. Here’s hoping he can return to form; but I am comfortable opening up his roster spot in exchange for a late pick.
Nice talks with Todd as always, thank you and good luck!

Angels confirm.
I was looking to shore up my CI spot without having to deal with free agency. Lowe is an everyday lock for solid production. If his power returns to '22 form, he's a star. Hopefully Tellez can lock on with a team that needs him on a strong side platoon. I'll take the chance on a roster spot for him.
Good talks with Bailey
