Los Angeles Mariners / Colorado Tigers Trade 11-2-2016

[Deleted]

The Los Angeles Mariners have agreed on a proposed trade with the Colorado Tigers.  We are sending Taijuan Walker over in exchange for Juan Soto and Jordan Paterson.  In the last two days we have been active with several members of this league in discussing trade the may help our team.  When we took over this team we only had one minor league player in the top 100 of MLB ranks.  We like our young core of players but felt that the farm system was really thin.  Soto and Patterson are two quality prospects we decided on in a trade for Walker.  We feel with Kershaw, Greinke and Felix that sp was a strong point of our team and that we could move a piece to stock the farm system.

Same here. A trade of needs. I needed to shore up my SP a bit with Walker and felt I had the prospect depth to let these guys go. Good to have some activity and glad to have these guys on board. Confirm

Hey guys, please list out full contracts/salaries for each player involved in trades. If it's a minor leaguer all you have to do is list name and then "prospect."

I need this information listed before any Commish approval can be posted. Feel free to look at any 2016 Trades in the archived thread to see how this is done.

Thanks!

Commish approved. As soon as I get the new 2017 Fantrax site work started I will process on there.
