Padres/ Diamondbacks

[bill (Bill, SD)]

Padres trade:

RP Steve Cishek (CHW) $2.1 2021
RP Ryan Buchter (FA) $1.0 5th

to Diamondbacks for:

CF,RF Dexter Fowler (STL) $2.6 2020

OF Wilderd Patino (ARZ) $0.3 1st (unprotected) www.milb.com/player/index.jsp?player_id=679741

Cap change:

Padres= -$0.2

Dbacks= +$0.5

By posting, the Padres accept.  Just adding a depth OF bat by giving up some controllable relievers.  Nothing spectacular about any of the pieces involved, but Fowler is still a start and has dual OF eligibility, so that will be useful.  Cishek will be a high leverage guy for the White Sox and a nice source of holds.  Buchter had a solid season and yet was still non tendered by the A's, we are both sure he will find a home soon.  Wildred is one of those international specs that could be something or nothing.  He's far away and really just a lottery ticket for me that I may flip later to supplement my "win now" window.

My guys have been dropped in fantrax.

Thanks Bob for the easy quick and easy talks

Arizona accepts

I need some bullpen depth and have an excess of outfielders. Thanks for the negotiations and take it easy on the rest of the NL west this year.
