Cubs Trade
1B Anthony Rizzo (8.16M 2019++)
Phils Trade
P Braden Shipley 1B Maikel Franco 2013 5th Rd (PHI)
Accept.
I really like Rizzo and think he can be a 30+ HR 100+ RBI guy, but I love the potential Franco has shown as a 20 year old in AA. He had a terrific season and really established himself. Shipley and his upper 90's fastball is also a key addition to my future rotation of Studs.
I accept, I really love Rizzo he has a great contract, for a guy with the upside of 30 hr, 100 RBI, .250 average. I will miss Franco, but so be it. Nice dealing and good luck!
