Detroit Trades: 1B Justin Bour, MIA, 3rd, 1.0 St. Louis Trades: RP Trevor Rosenthal, STL, 5th, 1.0 SS Anderson Tejeda, TEX, 1st, 0.3**Unprotected**( www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.cgi?id=tejeda001and) RHP Alvaro Seijas, STL, 1st, 0.3**Unprotected** ( www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.cgi?id=seijas000alv) RHP Connor Sadzeck, TEX, 1st, 0.3**Unprotected** ( www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.cgi?id=sadzec001con) St. Louis Cap: No Change Detroit Cap: +0.9 Let's get trading season started! I have several distinct holes I'm targeting to fill this offseason, and a startable CI was one. Bour isn't a world-beater, but I think he's a 20-25 HR guy that will be cheaper at 1.0 then I'd pay for comparable production in free agency. I also have 3 additional years of control. Rosenthal is a big wild card. He had a rough year, but STL is allegedly going to try and make him an SP. If that works out, he could be a high K-rate SP and this deal could look worse for me. Then again, he could end up a mediocre middle reliever with a ridiculous walk rate. The prospects were all unprotected, credit to Detroit for doing some digging to get this done. Sadzeck is the closest and most interesting (to me anyway), the other two certainly have high ceilings but are really far away.

Accept. Rosenthal has a fair amount of upside, and some control left, but is a massive risk. Bour is a source of good, cheap production, but Rosenthal plus the specs give me enough incentive to make this deal. Will be an interesting deal to look back on down the road.
Thanks for the quick talks Rangers.
