CHW/WAS

[Chris (White Sox)]

CHW receives:

SP-Corey Black-CHC
3B-Carson Kelly-STL
2014 1st round pick
2014 5th round pick

WAS receives:

OF-Dayan Viciedo-CHW (2.8M 2013, Arb 2015-2017)

I do this trade to further build my prospect & pick collection.  I feel confident when everyone cuts their rosters down, I'll be able to find a player who puts up numbers close to Viciedo's.

Washington to confirm

[Gareth (Nats)]

I accept because I agreed to it and wouldn't go back on my word.

It's a bit of a punt that Viciedo gets it all right and do what he's threatened to do. I'm looking at it and know I'm giving up too much for a bit of a hunch but hopefully it works out.

[Troy (Cubs) (LM)]

Carson Kelly is being move to catcher, so we will see how that affects him. Way more than I'd give for Dayan.

Approve

[Brandon (Rangers)]

I don't like it for Washington, but my opinions on prospects and young developing players doesn't always mesh with others'. I'm also not always right, and Viciedo is a guy who can hit his way into making this into an even or positive deal for him.

Approve.
