Rays send: SP Trevor Bauer 300,000 (2019) OF Bubba Starling (KC) 2017 3rd Rd Fypd
Red Sox send: 1B/3B Travis Shaw - (2020) no contract, but contract year is 2020 and I will promote him immediately for a 300,000 contract
I hate trading Bauer, but Shaw has been a very solid 3b the past two years. It's really hard to find 3b on the market as well. He will add a solid bat to my order. Bauer was my number five starter right now.
Starling has power potential, but has struggled to hit for average. I think the pick is fair compensation for the fact that 3b is a tougher position to fill than sp.

Accepted, need pitching. Shaw is valuable but this is decent value for him. Starling is playing like ass but potentials baby.

Nice to see Red Sox come out of his hole. I like this trade a lot for Rays as I feel that Shaw is worth more than Bauer. While the Rays do try to compensate for that, I don't feel that Starling or the FYPD pick are worth a lot to the point where it is essentially Shaw for Bauer straight up. Of course, Bauer had potential once upon a time that could come back where I can see a Shaw-Bauer swap being reasonable enough
Approved 1-0

Agreed - I like Shaw more right now, and the pick and Starling help make up the difference in value. Approval #2
