Murphy is really good, but that's still a whole lot to give up for one player and we still have the same holes on the team that we had before.

Something else must be coming in terms of a signing, because we gave up a shite ton of trade capital.


If this is the final trade, Milwaukee just fleeced everyone.

Source confirms that Milwaukee's end of this trade was:

UTL Esteury Ruiz (to OAK)
for
RHP Justin Yeager (from ATL), RHP Joel Payamps (from OAK), and C William Contreras (from ATL)

Still unclear if there's more names exchanged between ATL and OAK than have been reported.


The frick is AA doing this offseason?

This is what bugs me about it.

We literally had it set up where Contreras could DH with the Pina insurance... and we just let that go.

Murphy is a really good catcher, I can't stress that enough, but catcher was not going to be a problem for us for like another 2 or 3 years.

...and we gave up our top prospect and our most-coveted controllable asset to get a guy that will be platooning with TDA.

I just don't get it.

Well I certainly don’t understand this trade

We had the ability to DH Contreras / Darnaud by carrying 3 catchers and don’t have that now.

Only potential positive it does (other than Murphy being good) is open up spots on the 40 man roster for a free agent signing? But interesting way to open up a spot

So in the last week they've traded Malloy, Muller, Tarnok, Pena, and Contreras. And they still don't have a serviceable LF or SS.

We gave up 6 players in this one. Wild.

I don't understand this trade.

Full trade, per ESPN sources:

Atlanta gets: C Sean Murphy

Oakland gets: LHP Kyle Muller, UT Esteury Ruiz, RHP Freddy Tarnok, RHP Royber Salinas, C Manny Piña

Milwaukee gets: C William Contreras, RHP Justin Yeager, RHP Joel Payamps
