Dodgers send Rangers reached a deal...
Dodgers send:
Trevor Williams - 2019/$1; 2020/Arb1
Albert Almora - 2019/$1; 2020/Arb1
Ty Buttrey - 2019/.50; 2020/.75; 2021/$1; 2020/Arb1
Andrew McCutchen - 2019/$9; 2020/$9; 2021/$9; 2022/$9; 2023/UFA
For
Madison Bumgarner (+ max cap relief) - 2019/$11.5; $2020/$18.75; 2021/$18.75; 2022/$18.75; 2023/$18.75; 2024/TO (2019/$5.75; 2020-2023/$14.06)
Josh Donaldson (+ max cap relief) - 2019-2021/$30.5 (2019/$15.75; 2020/$23; 2021/$23)
Dodgers were looking for an SP likely to benefit from a change of scenery prior to trade deadline and to hopefully get someone pitching on different days than Cole + Scherzer. While Bumgarner looks to be in the move by the trade deadline, hopefully one of these three gets a rain out soon to shift their start days (😆).
Donaldson has been on fire lately, so we were also looking for another big bat to keep in the lineup and allow some flexibility in the lineup to move players around.
Giving up the young rookie contracts was tough, but we were looking for some firepower to push the 2nd wild card spot. Cutch had to go to make room under the salary cap.
Thanks to new Rangers GM for working through a fluid trade discussion and ultimately landing 3 young players. Best of luck on the rebuild.
