ARZ / MIN Trade

[Minnesota Twins]

Minnesota Trades:

Austin Beck - 0.3 prospect

Arizona Trades:

Round 3 pick (2020)
Round 4 pick (2020)

The twins are heavy on CF prospects and we thought we can improve our farm by letting one go in favour of gaining in a draft where we can focus in other areas. We now have 8 picks in the first four rounds. This should let us round out a stellar farm.

[Arizona Diamondbacks]

The D-Backs accept this deal.


We felt Beck was worth the 2 picks we gave up. He was the 6th overall pick 2 years ago and is progressing. He is at high A now and could see AA this season if he keeps hitting. We also had an extra 3rd round pick, so this deal made sense to us.

[Milwaukee Brewers]

BTW, the 3rd rd pick traded was that of the Dodgers (3.8) which AZ had acquired earlier in a trade.
