Jose Reyes & 3 minor leaguers (reported as Jeff Hoffman and Miguel Castro and Jesus Tinoco) for Troy Tulowitzki and LaTroy Hawkins (now a reliever).
via MLB Trade Rumors and a lot of twitter comments. Early talk had up to $6 mil coming back with Tulo but that seems false now.
AA is remarkable. A major upgrade when none seemed possible. FanGraphs has Tulo as #10 in WAR for SS, Reyes #12 and in a head scratcher have Tulo as worse than Reyes on defense. Safe to say that AA and his crew of scouts would make sure that isn't the case and more a statistical blip. For the rest of the season FanGraphs expects 1.7 more WAR for Tulo and 0.9 for Reyes.
As for contracts...
Tulowski: $20 mil per year for 2015-2019, $14 mil in 2020 and a $15 mil option for 2021 or $4 mil buyout
Reyes: $22 mil per year for 2015-2017, $22 mil option in 2018 or $4 mil buyout.
So $2 mil a year saved after this year. Tulo also got $2 mil for being traded.
Bottom line: AA is the most fun GM one could want. He has done some shocking trades. Wells for anything, Donaldson/Lawrie, the big 2 pre 2013 trades,and now this.
I do take pride in calling for a Reyes/Tulowski trade awhile ago. Who knew? Now lets see AA go for the scariest offense possible and get Yasiel Puig out of LA as there are rumors LA is willing to trade him now. Then we'll have tons of 15-14 games to enjoy. :)
