Braves/Cubs

[Braves GM (Eric)]

Braves trade:

SP Randy Dobnak, 2nd, 0.5 (Twins)
RP Chad Sobotka, 1st, 0.3 (Braves) www.fangraphs.com/players/chad-sobotka/17470/stats?position=P

Cubs trade:

LF/RF Adam Duvall, 6th, 5.2 (Braves)
RHP Yadier Alvarez, 1st, 0.3 (Dodgers) www.fangraphs.com/players/yadier-alvarez/sa868984/stats?position=P

Braves cap: +4.7
Cubs cap: -4.7

I'm dreaming on Yadier Alvarez a bit here, but it's most likely not going to happen for the young man. Great arm in one way...terrible arm in another. 

Randy and Sobotka should both get a shot next year. I still have faith that Dobnak uses that sinker to be a #5 starter. 

Duvall's a Brave who can mash baseballs. He will either stay unprotected on my bench or be a useful protected bench bat depending on how my team works out. Most likely a bit of both throughout the year, as his salary while a Brave will be flexible. 

Thanks, Cubbies. We got there. 

[Cubs GM (Dave)]

Cubs accept
Looking to trim some payroll, really enjoyed watching Duvall crush balls last year, but need the flexability for the offseason.
thanks for the trade
