ATL sends Brandon Williamson, Joe Rock & Pedro Leon to CWS and
CWS send Byron Buxton and Kody Hoese to ATL
We like Buxton but were looking for a SP with options and Brandon Williamson fits that need and pairs with Lodolo in CIN. Leon has been performing well with the astros and should get an opportunity sooner rather than later. Joe Rock is pitching decent and is in AAA with a possible call up in summer 2024. With these 3 players we feel like we got good value for Buxton who will be everyday CF this season in MIN and we clear a little cap going forward with few younger guys coming up to fill in. Kody Hoese still has all of his tools at his disposal and should be a solid MLB bat in the future. Thanks for the deal Braves and good luck this season

I needed an Upgrade in CF and hopefully Buxton will be able to gain eligibility there soon and stay healthy this year. If he can, it’s a nice bat added to the lineup while filling a position of need
