CHC / MIA

[Chicago Cubs]

Cubs receive:
Johnny Peralta SS/3B STL - $10/UFA
Austin Riley 3B ATL - Prospect
Christian Stewart LF DET - Prospect

Marlins receive:
Chris Owings SS/CF ARI - $2.3/ARB2/ARB3/UFA
Garret Hampson SS COL - Prospect


Reason for trade:
I like the versatility of SS/OF and cheap controllable contract for Owings, but adding both Riley and Stewart to my farm was too tough to pass up and fits into my strategy for a strong/deep farm

[New York Mets]

I accept this trade. After the greek tragedy of Ian Desmond I needed a fill-in for CF. Owings is still young with some upside, versatile (he covers my weak SS position as well) and has a favourable contract. I offered Peralta as a substitute and the prospects should improve the Cubs farm system.
