OF Corey Dickerson $12,500,000 (2022)
1B Miguel Sano $7,900,000 (2023) ((Re-Sign))
C James McCann $7,000,000 (2024)
The Why
I feel my team is ready to make a run this year. I am acquiring Will Smith a true difference maker at the C position. I am getting K. Bryant where I dont think he is the MVP type player he was, he is still a very solid player and will help my OF and if i have injuries has some position flexibility to play 3B. Jared Walsh forecast for similar numbers as Sano on a better salary - so saving some money, getting more years of control, younger, and i think he stays at 1B where Sano could become UT only. (My UT is already filled with Franmil Reyes). Stratton is a wild card who will give me RP depth and could see some holds.
I am giving up a ton to get younger and cheaper. (Sano,McCann,Dickerson) some is salary dump but with McCann its just because i am getting Smith. Sano its the resign I need to move because getting Bryant have to free one up for next year and didnt want to roll the dice on trying to trade Sano to someone else. This is a safe move for me. Dickerson in my eyes is a salary dump at 12.5M. Giving up Pearson and Manning both hurt - Manning was going to be in my rotation this year. Pearson hasn't lived up to hype yet (but only pitched 33 Innings) but if he stays healthy his K's will be incredible and could be the best player in this deal in the future in my opinion. So the way i see the trade is Pearson, Manning, and the picks. The other players traded will be good assets for LA if they want to play them or trade them, but i no longer needed them with the players i was picking up. The $$$$$ was more important to me. So i can hopefully put finishing touches on team in FA.
