Dbacks receive: CF Tyler Naquin -- CLE, 2nd, 0.5 LHP Austin Gomber -- STL, 1st, 0.3 www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=sa827376&position=P C Tomas Telis -- MIA, 1st, 0.3 www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=10067&position=CRangers receive: RP Tony Watson 6th 2.0 RP Bryan Shaw 6th 1.2 Cap: Dbacks -2.1 Rangers +2.1 Watson is as solid as they come, and Shaw is an under appreciated 8th inning guy. Having said that, holds and saves wont do anything for me this year, plus they are both expiring contracts, so I'm happy to trade them for some young controllable talent. Naquin played over his head, no doubt, but I think he can make some adjustments and continue to be a cheap source of double digit HR's and Steals. I feel like Gomber has more upside than what scouts give him credit for, and that he could make it into the big league rotation at some point next year. Telis is a throw in. I know his bat is void of power, but he's a switch hitting catcher that makes tons of contact and has solid defense. He's not gonna unseat JT, but I think he could answer the call if need be. Appreciate the easy talks, thanks, Scott.

Accept. A couple solid bullpen pieces without playing the free agency game. I needed holds and wanted saves and I get both here (or worse case, Watson doesn't hold the closer gig and goes back to being a holds machine).
Naquin is a nice young piece to give up, but I am sitting on some CF depth. Gomber keeps cranking better numbers than his scouting reports indicate, and the Cards seem to do well with this type. Dealing him could bite me in the ass. But I'm trying to win, so give to get.
