Yankees Trade:
OF - Mookie Betts - 4 years x $22.50M (UFA) SP - Max Scherzer - $5.40M/$9.00M (UFA)
Astros Trade:
OF - Seiya Suzuki - 6 years x $15.00M (UFA) OF - Jasson Dominguez - Prospect OF - Josh Lowe - Prospect SP - Quinn Priester - Prospect 2023 1st (HOU) 2023 1st (SD) 2023 1st (CLE) 2023 1st (CHW) 2023 1st (Compensatory Pick)
Some big pieces are on the move here. Mookie is a great player, same with Max, but they are starting to age some, and Mookie has a higher contract price on him. With being the third worst team in the league with not much in the farm, this will help give me a reset in that department. I get Suzuki, who is already in the pros, and is still adjusting to the MLB (Check out Ohtani, he struggled early before figuring it out). Lowe has some very solid tools, Priester is a young up-and-coming arm. And Dominguez was very highly regarded when signed. He is still really young, so as he continues to grow, it is only expected that he will continue to adjust and excel. Lowe, Priester, and Dominguez are ranked 46, 51, & 56 in MLB's top prospects list. Throw in what these picks will bring me, it will be a very solid farm before this season is done as I continue to sell pro pieces. Thanks Rob for the great offer and the back and forth. Best of luck the rest of the season!

Astros approve. Last year was our inaugural season. I got the last pick of the draft and immediately decided to draft prospects instead of MLB players (it was a mixed draft). I also accumulated a wealth of 1st round draft picks (for this past FYPD and next year's FYPD). Some of my prospects are already paying dividends (Wander Franco, Julio Rodriguez). I got the benefit of grabbing Acuna in the dispersal draft. Instead of it taking a few years for my team to be good, I think that day is NOW. Betts and Mad Max are proven winners and can help me challenge today! Good luck Yanks; much appreciated.
