Pirates trade:
OF, Luis Matos (prospect)
RHP, Alexander Vizcaino (prospect)
CF, Mike Tauchmann ($500k) - year 2
Marlins trade:
RF, Bryce Harper ($45m through 2026)
$22.2m coverage in 2020 on Harper, $20m coverage in 2021 on Harper
Pirates confirm. Made this move because I think free agency prices will be insane. I think Matos value might be at a career high right now. I'll take my chances that he doesn't make another huge rise next year. I've saved my amnesty for a move like this, planning to cut bait with Harper after 2021 or I guess trade him if someone wants him. No way I'm paying $45m a year for anyone.
