SD/TEX Trade

[San Diego Padres]

SD sends:

RP Wade Davis, Two 4th round MILB picks (CAL & SEA)

to TEX for:

1B Edwin Encarnacion

By posting I accept. I think EE turns it around and provides an above average replacement for Freeman at 1B. Thanks TEX!

I agree.

Given the high turnover rate in the Closer Industry, I'm glad to add another arm to my pen. I expect EE to resort to his usual form (He already clocked 2 dingers this week), but I think my loss can be somewhat compensated by the 4 current bench positions I'm carrying for position players. Both players are eligible for free agency next year, and have similar salaries for 2017, so it seems fair in that regard.

Thanks Mr. Padre, and "Good Luck" for the season.
