Athletics/ Mariners deal

[OaktownSam]

Mariners send:

Jesse Winker RF (ml)

Athletics send:

Roniel Raudes SP (aaa)
Larazo Armenteros CF (a)
Blake Hunt C (aa)

Continuing to try and build a long standing, young, cost controlled offense that we can rely on whilst developing a rotation through draft and develop. Winker is a player profile I really like; high contact LHB with a great eye, he'll likely play DH and some LF. 

Trading Raudes sucks and contradicts the plan to develop young pitching - but I've never been a big fan of extreme fly ball SPs - so I can live with letting him go. Armenteros and Hunt are also solid specs but our farm is strong at C and CF. 

Thanks to Jeff for the quick, fair dealings. Good luck with the M's rebuild.

We agree.

This helps get the farm restocked. Hate to lose Winker, but the A’s were willing to deal! Gray doing business with you!
