For Zobrist: I'll offer Tropeano B- with Selman B- and Jemele Weeks. All those pieces are negotiable, just a starter.

Royals send:
2B Ben Zobrist 7M (14-15T @7.5M)

Braves send:
2B Jemile Weeks 400K (14-15T)
Nick Tropeano, RHP, Grade B-:
Sam Selman, LHP, Grade B-:


I started working towards moves like this by clearing space and giving Bourn away for a B- which I thought was an undersell but still it was fair for what both teams wanted. With that space I can address the glaring hole I have at 2B and this deal gets me what I need. Zobrist's numbers last year were underwhelming but he still holds value, 15-10 potential but not the stud he once was if you look at his production past name value. Royals clears space and gets 2 B- prospects in return, with Tropeano being a guy I really like as well as Jemile Weeks as a possible bounce back young player who showed high promise but has not yet lived up to it. Overall I think the deal accomplishes goals for both teams.

I accept. I need to move cap and I like what I am getting in return.

Trade Invalid. Zobrist listed as a Waiver and has already been claimed, has to go through the claim process before he can be traded and a 48 hour wait has to be processed from the initial posting.

Here is my newly made Waiver Wire List. Since there was previous griping about it being hard to follow I've simplified the process. If Braves would like to make a claim he can do that, but he has to beat out the rest of the list.

This is a good trade for both teams. Royals need to lower cap and get two good prospects.

1-1 I understand the reason for the trade. But here are two problems I have. I traded away Zobrist and Ruf for Syndergaard, so he's at least a B+ value since Ruf is a B- value.

The other problem is Zobrist put up almost identical numbers to Kinsler last year. He's the number 7 2B in MLB. Should we lower the value for a person because he is being released from salary cap relief? I'll put it up to the others.

I don't particularly like this trade. I feel that Royals are getting the short end of the deal. Weeks looks like a back up to Schoop..I passed it but it wasn't an easy decision, even though I understand the idea of the trade.
