Pirates Trade:
Pick 2.15
Pick 3.15
Liam Hendricks, RP, FA, 2024: $2.7M AAV, 2025: $2.7M AAV
Lake Monsters Trade:
Anthony Rizzo, CI, NYY
Rationale
My focus is still for 2025 and beyond but I would still like to just see what happens this year too. I had 12 picks between this year's draft and next, so I feel comfortable moving a 2nd and 3rd rounder in this situation. Rizzo, if healthy, should be part of a pretty decent Yankee lineup and there is no commitment beyond 2024. Hendricks was added to offset a bit of salary while also clearing a bit off next year's books. Good to work with the Lake Monsters on our first trade, great addition to the league. Over to the Lake Monsters to confirm
