To Miami
2B/3B STL Jedd Gyorko 6/9/13/13TO
To Toronto
3B NYY Miguel Andujar - Prospect OF MIL Trent Clark - Prospect SP NYY Dillon Tate - Prospect SP MIA Tyler Kolek - Prospect
I think Gyorko is pretty underrated but ultimately wasn't going to fit into my plans, he's having another nice season and allowed me to deal him for prospects that fit the timeline of the rest of my team. Didn't get a top shelf prospect in the deal but am pleased to get 4 guys that all have MLB upside. Best of luck to Gyorko and the Marlins.

I have been following Gyorko since he broke into the Majors in 2013. At that time many scouts thought of him being the best pure hitter in the Minors. Since I was looking for a longterm fix at 3B I gladly offered some prospects as the Blue Jays demanded.
Fact: Since 2016 Gyorko has the second best HR/AB ration in MLB behind Khris Davis and in front of a guy named Giancarlo Stanton. Just entering his prime years and batting in the middle of STL linuep I see more production coming in the near future.
We thank the Blue Jays for accepting our offer and wish Miguel, Trent, Dillon and Tyler a prosperous MLB career.
