Tampa/Toronto trade

[Deleted]

Tampa send

Blake Hunt C TB prospect
Pick 10.3 in 2021

Toronto sends

Pete Fairbanks RP TP prospect

Reasoning: Drew reached out about acquiring my pick at 3.13 and I mentioned my interest in Fairbanks. While my system is lacking picks and minor leaguers, I felt acquiring a quality reliever with control would help my team which seems to be in win now mode. Instead of waiting for a trade to process and maybe holding up the draft. I took the player Drew wanted and just made the deal after. Nice and easy talks with Drew.

Confirmed. Hunt is a guy that I wanted to get in on here, and Rusty was kind enough to discuss. As a rebuilding team, I'm happy to trade a reliever to get a chance at a guy who could be a strong contributor at catcher in a year or two. The extra pick gives me the type of wild card that I am going to need to rebuild this mess of a team. Glad to have Rusty in the league and to get our first trade (in DD4) knocked out.
