STL receives:
2B Jed Lowrie OAK (6.5/6 Team Option/UFA)
C Miguel Montero CHC (14/UFA)
TOR receives:
1B Chris Shaw SF (Prospect)
OF Garrett Whitley TB (Prospect)
Reason for Trade:
STL is looking to solidify 2B and gain a backup C with Bethancourt's demotion to AAA. Oakland gains one prospect near MLB ready and another good OF prospect a bit further away from the Majors. OAK has 2B depth and Moncada in his pipeline to fill the spot.
Notes: OAK will be covering half the remaining 2017 salaries for both Lowrie ($3.25 million) and Montero ($7 million).

I accept. I like Shaw and needed a future 1st baseman.
