News and Notes

Blockbuster trade with the Guadalajara Ardillas of BOTA

Several thoughts behind this trade. Mike Bell has been underperforming this year and he is by far the highest on the payroll and he is under contract for the next 6 years at $14 mil a year. The outfield has also been crowded for talent. Also it’s important to note that Bell has an opt out if we get relegated, which is a definite possibility. Keith Barrett has great ratings but has been a disappointment this year with a 6.74 ERA. Jose Melgoza started in the majors but has fallen all the way to AA, time to cut loose.

Leon sends
RF Mike Bell
SP Keith Barrett
SP Jose Melgoza

Guadalajara sends
SP Christian Bresciani
CF Josh Fields
RP Eric Henninger
RP Dan Contreras

Christian Bresciani provides another young starter in the rotation at 26 years old. He has fantastic ratings and great stats. Josh Fields was a top 100 prospect in BOTA, but he is lower in PBOTA. He is really just a flier at this point. Henninger is a fantastic reliever with great stats and ratings. Contreras is a bit more of a risk with okay ratings but great statistics.

Should hopefully be a worthwhile trade, dumping some salary and dead weight and picking up some good talent.

Looking Ahead
3 games at Puebla Pantera (31-47, 10th)
3 games vs. Tijuana (39-39, 5th)
