I have been trying for weeks to fill the void I have at 1B since Eric Thames went down and I finally get a good one with Belt. I can also pick up his option at a good price for next year so he can be there until Peter Alonso is ready to take over. I am paying a fairly steep price as Beeks and Shaw are both in AAA and likely to debut this year and really start contributing next year. Hate to lose those guys but this helps me this year and next... thats enough to lose a few prospects. Thanks for the deal, easy negotiation.

I inherited the Giants knowing that they were in a tough spot but with some TLC they could easily turn it around and compete for next year with the right players. Losing Belt was tough especially since I am inheriting the Lowrie contract but I trim almost a $1 of salary while picking up some really good prospects in return. 2 that are almost ready for the show, and 1 in Enlow who is very young but has a lot of talent.
