CLE Sends
P Justin Masterson $5,500,000 (2018) (RESIGN) SS Yu-Cheng Chang 2016 DD Pick #6
SF Sends
CF Melvin Upton Jr $8,500,000 (2017) (RESIGN) SS Adrian Rondon
Giants accept.
Swapping the resign tags to give Cleveland a little more flexibility for the next few years. I can afford to take an another dead resign tag and I get value out of Upton which I wasn't likely to get otherwise. I'm very high on Chang, he's got a higher floor and a better timetable then Rondon albeit in a crowded young infield.
Cleveland to accept
Thanks for the smooth negotiations.

Indians accept
For me it's about getting rid of the Masterson resign so I can resign Kluber after 2017 season. Upton also gives me a useable player and I'm light on OF.
Chang and the #6 DD pick are hard to give up, but I'd rather have the resign 1 year earlier and I already have a long term option at SS.

CLE Sends P Justin Masterson $5,500,000 (2018) (RESIGN) SS Yu-Cheng Chang 2016 DD Pick #6 SF Sends CF Melvin Upton Jr $8,500,000 (2017) (RESIGN) SS Adrian Rondon Rondon was traded from TB to SF. Masterson is clearly worth very little which SF understands. So really it comes down to Chang/#6 2016 DD Pick for "Don't Call Me BJ" and Rondon. Chang is the #6 spec in the Indians system given a Grade B by Sickels. Adrian Rondon is the #14th spec in TB system given a Grade C+/B- by Sickels. Melvin did hit 20 HR last year and should be the starting LF in Toronto this year at least to start the year. APPROVAL #1

Approval #2. Always tricky with re-sign tags involved, but this seems fair enough and both GMs get what they need out of it.
