Padres send: Yandy Diaz, 1B,3B - TB 21-22: 500K Freddy Tarnok, SP - ATL (prospect) Yankees send: Josh Bell, 1B - WAS 21: 500K
Reasoning: Jake put Bell on the block and instantly I was interested. My lineup could use the pop and I believe in the guy a lot. I think his change of scenery will continue to be good for him in DC. I hate to lose an arm like Tarnok's and such a talented hitter in Yandy, but this is an upside play. Josh Bell at his peak can outperform the potential of both other guys. Great talks with Jake and excited to see him retool and be back competing soon!

I'm not the believer in Bell that Houston is and likely wasn't going to bring him back. Yandy gives me a solid bat who can help me try to compete next year, and Tarnok adds a lottery ticket as a high-upside arm if he can just stay healthy.
Great working with Houston, good trade for both.
