CIN/TB

[Reds GM (Adam)]

Cincinnati Trades:

Joe Boyle, SP OAK - MiLB contract
Abner Uribe, RP MIL - MiLB contract

Tampa Bay Trades:

Daulton Varsho, OF TOR - 3 years of arbitration


Cincinnati desperately needs cost effective hitters and Varsho is exactly that. If he catches fire and picks back up to that Top 100 prospect form, we will be cooking. Hate losing two really promising pitchers I got for literally nothing…but you’ve got to deal from strength to get stronger.

Bailey to confirm

[Rays GM (Bailey)]

Tampa Bay confirms!

Much like Adam said, dealing from strength to hopefully get stronger. It is tough for me to move Varsho, who I can easily see having a 25/15 season, but with my roster consturction I viewed him as a trade candidate. I could use some more pitching, and have had Uribe and Boyle on my radar for a while, so I am excited to take a chance on them. It all comes down to if they can hone their respective command, so we shall see.

Nice talks with Adam per usual, thanks and good luck!
