The Padres traded Joey Cantillo (#12) Gabriel Arias (#16) and Owen Miller (#25) from their system for Clevinger.


Baseball America had Arias as their number 9 prospect, and you are leaving out Josh Naylor and Cal Quantrill, two former first round picks with a lot of potential, who no longer qualify as "prospects".


And reading about Cantillo and looking at his minor league stats, he has a chance to be a stud. Again, in a stacked farm system, you don't sneeze at anyone inside their top 30. The Braves had the same situation a couple of years ago, before everyone started graduating to the majors or occasionally being traded.

Giving up a ton of those at once usually is not a good idea. But you see it more often from the organizations who can make a play on top free agents. Like the Padres did with Hosmer and Machado.
