BTV has Donovan at 30.7 and Cijntje, Williamson, Peete at a total of 35.3.
Tai Peete is WAY over valued at $14M. This trade is sheer Genius. A++++++

If those are the players I am good with it. Good job Jerry. No doubt Jerry is pulling the strings.

Looks like Ms also gave up a Comp b draft pick as well. A slight overpay but a leadoff hitter and versatility is good, what outlet has Rays sending comp b and another has Ms so who knows yet

JC might turn out to be a good MLB pitcher but he's not a sure thing and he's years away. Peete looks like a project who probably won't pan out. Williamson is weak. Donovan is one of the best second basemen in the game.

We give DiPoto a lot of grief, but he's actually the best GM we've had since Gillick.

I think the Rays are sending the comp pick to the cardinals. basically the M's traded Williamson Peete and Cijntje for Donovan and then the cards flipped Williamson for Ledbetter and a comp pick.

Left field power and sprays the ball in the gaps right and center.
Super Psyched to see this guy in our lineup.
The boy is a gamer and plays some great defense too.

I don't get the excitement man.

I watched his highlight reel. Brought another guy to mind. One that most don't seem thrilled with.

Put this guy (and his .614 OPS vs lefties in 2025) in T-Mobile, and he's J.P Crawford v2.0.

Last year, and last 3 years numbers:

Have to hand it to dipoto, guy can put together a deal. He delivers pretty consistently without replying on free agency.
