Cleveland Braves/ Oakland Cubs Trade

[Cleveland Braves (Drew)]

Cleveland Braves trade:
Mitch Haniger OF SEA 22: 17M, 23: 14.5M
Tucker Davidson P ATL 22-25: 500K
Prospect Curtis Mead UT TB
Prospect Trevor Hauver OF TEX

to Oakland Cubs for:
Travis D'Arnaud C ATL 22: 9M
John Scheiber P BOS 22-23: 500K
Jeffrey Springs P TB 22: 710K
Jon Berti UT MIA 22: 510K

I am acquiring a bunch of short term contracts to try to lock down a championship. D'Arnaud fills a big hole at catcher, Scheiber helps with holds, and Berti can hopefully lock down the SB category for me. Springs is pitching depth, who I'll hope can keep it going for a while longer. I give up a pretty good haul of controllable guys, but I'm in a position where I want to try to hold off Rusty and anyone who might make a 2nd half run. Good deal and negotiating with Mitchell!

Oakland Cubs confirm. Acquiring a prospect I really like in Mead by taking on Haniger’s salary and cashing in 3 expiring deals and a 4th that doesn’t figure to play a major role for me next year. Davidson and Hauver are a nice bonus. Easy and quick negotiations with Drew. Good luck!

Co commissioner approval, proceed to process

Forgot to post this after Mitchell and I discovered it. I did not have Curtis Mead. We were not able to re-negotiate something that worked, so this trade did not get processed.
