CURRENT: OFFSEASON/OPENING DAY
NEXT: DRAFT DAY
Sorry for the longer than anticipated hiatus from this series, I had a lot on my plate, luckily it's back. Hopefully this rebuild goes better in 2018
GM Score -44 out of 1000
Trades:
Traded 20 yr old C Drew Shred (2.5* P) and 20 yr old RHP Antonio Santillan (2* P) to the Atlanta braves for 30 yr old RHP Drew Storen (5* C)
Storen will be our new closer, with Tynan Jackson being pushed to a bullpen role.
Reason, Tynan Jackson still has Control problems (40 currently) I want to see if he can perform before I throw him into the ninth, Storen would be traded if Tynan pans out.
Traded 26 yr old LF Kyle M. Waldrop to the Chicago Cubs for 29 yr old RHP Jake Petricka
Reason:
Verdugo will be claiming a starting spot in the outfield and Winkler and Schebler were just simply producing more than Waldrop prompting the trade for bullpen support.
