Mariners accept.
With Meadows still out indefinitely and Duvall now also hurt, I can use some help at LF as I try to make a push into the playoffs.

Approve 1 - 1
I understand when trying to move a rental player taking potentially less value for him to get something than nothing at all. The only thing I would like to have seen is Benintendi on his trade block to get hopefully more offers. But I get moving him with what you feel is the best value you can get.

I agree I’d have liked to have seen AB on the block or something. I am pretty certain you could’ve gotten a better spec than what you got. Not sure this guy ever makes the big leagues.
I don’t perceive this to be league altering from a wins/losses perspective, but I do think it would set a terrible precedent for the value of rental players. Building teams rely on a strong market and value on guys like this and I can’t approve a trade that someone else could point to and use to lower the rental market value.

Knowing Benintendi won’t be resigned is the only way this one makes sense.
Approve 2-2

I absolutely hate vetoing deals involving 2 veteran GMs. With that said I do think this is a borderline deal by them.
Spencer Packard - #20 SEA by FG (35+), unranked out of 30 by mlb pipeline. He is 24 still in A+ as a 2021 9th Rd pick.
Benintendi isn't going to blown anyone away. He has almost no power with just 3 HR on the season. Not many RBIs just 34. Very limited speed just 4 SB and just 34 R. He has hit .320/.788 but its pretty empty. He is probably not someone that is even close to re-sign worthy.
Do I think he could have maybe got a little more? Maybe. But I doubt it was going to be much more for someone who is essentially a warm body who helps in very limited categories.
Approval #3 (3-2)
