Brewers and Royals complete a 4-man trade. Brewers send: - Taylor Walls, SS, TB - 22/$0.75 TC2
- Garrett Freschette, 1B, SFG - $0.2 prospect
- Abner Uribe, P, MIL - $0.2 prospect
Royals send:
- Isiah Kiner-Falefa, SS, NYY - 22/$4.5 23/$6.75 24/$6.75 25/$6.75 26/UFA
- KC's 2023 5th rd pick
We've been looking at acquiring another SS option and IKF seemed to be one of the few available. He's underachieved thus far in 2022 but so has most of the Yankee offense. We hope he picks things up quickly otherwise he could easily be replaced by the dearth of SS prospects the Yanks have.
Walls is a premium defensive player but has struggled to get consistent playing time, although he's still very young. It's possible he becomes a swiss army knife for the Rays as well due to his versatility. Freschette and Uribe are a couple of prospects that are a bit a way yet but have shown flashes of potential.
Thanks to the Royals for the deal. Best of luck.

I accept like Walls hopefully he can pick it up offensively this yearNd get more playing time. But also like the 2 prospects I got back

This deal has been modified to be IKF for Walls, Freschette and Uribe.
2nd deal is Cade Marlowe for the KC 5th rd pick.
Had to do this to make the pick compensation legal. And wanted it for transparency since I'm part of the Commish team.
