They are also getting $1.75 in cash? Seems liike a pretty good deal, long ways from a salary dump

No kidding. Wow that’s a win. We get rid of 2 slugs on the 40 man and frees up money and room for a left fielder

Love it

Great trade I think most folks had an overreaction to Winks off year. Winker and Toro for a 118 OPS+ in 2022 2B. He is a lefty but is not a difference maker more of a table setter type a lot like JP really. 99 OPS+ career but has been a 110 OPS+ type for several years. A pretty good bet to get you 15 SB and 10 HR.

Now we need a OF, DH, maybe BP and an upgrade to SP.

Make a lot of people happy with Toro no longer available for the roster. Good trade for us overall

He's not the greatest, but I'll take him over spending $250M on a free agent SS.

And Toro is gone! Huzzah!

So Wong is $10 M and then a FA. That works. If he excels we can always offer him an extension. At 32 we likely let him walk
