Rangers Trade: SP Max Scherzer (WAS) - $12,000,000 (2019)(2020TO) (re-sign)
Cubs Trade: OF Brandon Nimmo (NYM) (2022) SP Joe Musgrove $300,000 (2021) RHP Ian Anderson (ATL) SS Isaac Paredes (DET)
I have been riding Mad Max, Lester and Sale for some time but at some point you need to re-load if you want to keep going forward. In this trade I acq a OFer where I have limited depth, a SP who may or maynot long-term be a solution there but will be in 2019 plus 2 prospects with great upside.
Mad Max is without a doubt still a stud ace who is signed for 2 more yrs and then could be re-signed for a very reasonable rate after that. The only way I was parting with Max was if I got a great package that I felt I could not say no too.
Rangers Accept

I feel like I've taken over a great squad with a lot of majors/minors depth, and I get to leverage some of that to add another ace to my squad.
