Brewers trade:C: Yasmani Grandal - 6,700,000 (2020) SP/RP: Ian Kennedy - 3,400,000 (2020) A’s trade:
SP: Dylan Cease - White Sox Prospect 3B: Lucas Erceg - Brewers Prospect SS: Eli White - Rangers Prospect RP: Jesus Zambrano - A’s Prospect Sadly, my pitching staff was not able to keep me as competitive as I’d hoped this season, therefor I’m looking to upgrade for future seasons. A’s needed a boost from the catcher slot and a closer, and I’m very happy with my farm prospects at catcher. So, this came together pretty quickly. Excited to get Cease and Erceg in the fold, two positions where I lack young depth. White looks promising with super-utility projections. I needed Zambrano as a throw in because I’ve already submitted design patents on the “Jesus Saves” merchandise if he ever ends up a closer. #shmart How Acquired:

A’s accept
C is a black hole for my offense and I needed a P that could slide into RP or SP, just so happens to be able to get saves too. Had I known about the pending patent I would have held out for more on Jesus. Haha

A's are paying a high price here for a C and a SP turned RP but its close enough between 2 veteran GMs.
Approval #3
