Brewers send:
1B Adrian Gonzalez $8.5 2016
OF Nori Aoki $1.0 4th
SP Jimmy Nelson $0.5 2nd
Total - $10.0
Marlins send:
1B Billy Butler $11.0 2016
C Reese McGuire $0.3 1st (Pirates) www.baseball-reference.com/minors/player.cgi?id=mcguir001ree
SS Trevor Story $0.3 1st (Rockies) www.baseball-reference.com/minors/player.cgi?id=story-000tre
SS Jacob Gatewood $0.3 1st (Brewers) www.baseball-reference.com/minors/player.cgi?id=gatewo000jac
SP Stephen Gonsalves $0.3 1st (Twins) www.baseball-reference.com/minors/player.cgi?id=gonsal001ste
Total - $12.2
Cap Difference
Brewers +$1.9 (unprotecting Gatewood)
Marlins -$2.2
I do this trade to acquire some prospects I really like in the long run without hurting myself much in the short term. With Rodon, Butler, Norris, and Cooney all up this year at different points already, my pitching is beginning to take shape. So Nelson was expendable. Butler is a bit more expensive and less productive but I don't lose a 1B in the process. And Nori Aoki was bumped to UTIL with Gardner, Taylor, Soler, Souza Jr., and Castillo (with Choice, Nimmo, Bell waiting in minors still)
I add another C in McGuire who is a top 100 prospect who like Hedges has defense to be in majors already, but at only 20 has time to work on his bat.
Story is a guy who was ranked in top 100, fell out, but has come back swinging in AA batting .413 OBP with 7 HR and 9 SB. If Tulo gets traded could be a late season call up. Gatewood is a Brewers prospect with enormous upside, but a hole in his bat so far in the majors. Gonsalves is a pitcher who has been lights out this year.
