Re: Rate This Multi-Player Trade
I agree with Kofax that more information may be needed to know for sure. I will say that in my opinion both Matz and Travis may be the top 2 players in the deal longer term. For the rest of this season, if you already have 4 other keepers, you are correct in the assessment that this trade helps both teams. I think for the remainder of the year, Travis will put up similar numbers as LeMathieu (with more HR and less Runs). The fact that you also get Braun's counting stats definitely will help you in the offensive categories. Right now it looks like Matz and Duffy have similar numbers but I think longer term Matz has the higher upside.
