CHC/MIL

[Chicago Cubs]

CHC gets:
AJ Puk SP OAK - prospect

MIL gets:
Bruce Rondon RP DET - $0.85m/ARB2/ARB3/UFA
Jacob Barnes RP MIL - $0.5m/TC2/TC3/ARB1/ARB2/ARB3/UFA


Reason for trade:
I've got lots of good RP between my MLB and farms teams so figured I could afford to give up a couple in order to add a solid SP prospect.

[Milwaukee Brewers]

I accept this deal.

The surprising move to send Kela to the minors IRL left me very thin at RP. Puk is a lot to give up but Rodon is a proven talent and Barnes performed very well last year.

This helps both teams.
