One position where an upgrade was possible was LF... so we have decided to trade for Tommy Pham!

Oakland is retaining 75%, which means we are paying him $1.2m.
We essentially flipped Davis Wendzel for him as the pitcher we threw in (to get more salary retention) is a non-factor.

Also, while looking at players on trading block we noticed Boston was looking to move Austin Hedges!

We only added Reese McGuire to 40man after spring training since we had no backup catcher. Also, we have signed Roberto Perez to MiLB deal for AAA depth.

Angel Rodon was a pitcher we acquired in the Joey Gallo trade, but he would be a weak #5 starter at best.

Now time to sim ahead to the draft and see if we can make any roster adjustments along the way!
