Diamondbacks/Reds

[Arizona Diamondbacks]

After a little talking the Reds and D-Backs have agreed to following trade...


Reds get:
   Keegan Thompson, SP, Cubs  2022/0.8M  2023/0.8M  2024/0.8M  2025/UFA


D-Backs get:
   Cody Bolton, SP, Pirates  2022/0.2M  Prospect
   Prelander Berroa, SP, Mariners  2022/0.2M  Prospect


As our season slowly seems to be slipping away, we felt it made Thompson expendable for the right return. Bolton after missing all of 2021 appears to be healthy and is pitching well at AAA, we expect him to be up sometime this season if his success continues. In Berroa we are getting an SP prospect who has flown a bit under the radar. He is pitching very well at A+ and we expect to see him in AA soon.

Thompson is pitching well now that he is stretched out, so we do hate losing him, but overall, we feel we improved our team for the future.

Thanks to Shawn for the quick deal. Good luck the remainder of the year!

Thank you to DBacks for deal. We find ourselves in a 3 way tie again this year in the NL Central but SP injuries have been killer as of late. Thompson is on schedule with our other 2 SP
so we hope that can get ironed out soon. Thompson is a bit of an unknown but we are
hoping that his recent results are the norm.
