Diamondbacks/Cardinals

[Deleted]

A trade has been agreed to between Arizona and St. Louis

Arizona sends:

C Yadier Molina STL 2020 5.5m, 2021 11m, UFA (Arizona covers 5.5m in 2020)

St. Louis sends:

CF Steven Duggar SF 2020 0.75m, 2021 1m, 2022 ARB1, 2023 ARB2, 2024 ARB3 UFA
C Alex Jackson ATL 2020 0.5m, 2021 0.75m, 2022 1m, 2023 ARB1, 2024 ARB2, 2025 ARB3 UFA
RP Jose Alvarez PHI 2020 1m, 2021 1m, UFA

Molina should be able to hold the backstop down for the Cardinals until we see what slugging C - Sam Huff can offer.  Duggar, Jackson and Alvarez should provide some depth with upside for Arizona. Best of luck!

Arizona accepts.


For us, we took on Molina's contract to make another deal work. Even with what it costs us in penalty money, getting some depth pieces is just fine. Between this deal and the one where we took on the salary, we still feel we did just fine!


Thanks to the Cards for the deal and good luck this season!!
