Indians trade: OF Anthony Santander, 1st, 0.3 (Orioles) www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=14551&position=OFRP Ryne Stanek, 1st, 0.3 (Rays) www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=15947&position=PRHP Trevor Stephan, 1st, 0.3 (Yankees) www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=sa918441&position=POF Jason Martin, 1st, 0.3 (Pirates) www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=sa737834&position=OFOF Ka'ai Tom, 1st, 0.3 (Indians) *Prev. Unprot* www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=sa875069&position=OFSS Aaron Bracho, 1st, 0.3 (Indians) *Prev. Unprot* www.perfectgame.org/Players/Playerprofile.aspx?ID=480906Orioles trade: RP Will Harris, 6th, 1.0 RP Mychal Givens, 3rd, 1.0 Indians cap: +0.8 Orioles cap: -0.2 Another step toward having the most balanced team possible this year. I looked at my RP depth and was unsatisfied with the number of Braves and lack of viable contributors. I decided it best to pick up some guys who've done the job well in the past. I'm especially excited to see how Givens is utilized next year. Lots of good specs up there, but my depth allows this type of trade to occur. Thanks, Bert. That's our third? deal this offseason. Here's to another easy round of talks.

I'm sure to regret this when Givens is the Orioles closer, but trading away guys before they become extremely valuable is my move. Harris is going to be solid for Eric this season, but all of the teeth pulling on this deal was about Givens for me. I'm after the two relief arms I'm hoping have closer upside with a floor of set up men (Stanek & Stephan), then I get my IFA fix with Bracho who has a clear and unimpeded path to the majors at SS in Cleveland, Santander/Martin/Tom are all gambles that I think I can take in exchange for relievers. All three have valuable starter upside, at worst (well not THE worst) I get three 4th outfielder types. ANTBOL.
I seem to be the stop for teams looking to win it all.
