Giants Send: 3B/LF Cory Spangenburg (SDP) $300,000 (2019) Braves Send: LHP Brailyn Marquez (CHC) RHP Juan Contreras (Originally signed with ATL, currently unsigned) Giants accept. Spangenburg is a decent utility piece but with only two years left on his contract and with his playing time being cut into for the time being thanks to the Pads offseason acquisitions. Marquez and Contreras are two projectable teens who already throw in the mid 90s with a feel for a decent breaking ball, there is some concern with each of them. Marquez hasn't consistently repeated his delivery and there's uncertainty if Contreras can develop a 3rd pitch, not to mention that he hasn't signed somewhere else. In the end this is just about acquiring upside for a guy that doesn't fit into my long term plans. Thanks to the Braves for the easy negotiations.
How they were aquired: Cory Spangenburg aquired via trade with the Padres themajorsleague.freeforums.net/thread/2089/padres-giants-2-approved-3Brailyn Marquez, selected in the 2017 Dispersal draft by the Braves themajorsleague.freeforums.net/post/14533Juan Contreras signed by the Atlanta Braves in 2016, later his signing was voided.

Braves accept. I struck out in free agency so I had to go to plan B to acquire a 3B.

Approve 3
Side note, Contreras signed with LAA earlier this week or last. He is still Braves to trade.
