2045-00010: Talons Make Trade

Post by jiminyhopkins » Mon Nov 23, 2020 9:20 pm

Phoenix, AZ--

The Talons are pleased to announce a trade with the Vancouver Mounties.

In the deal, the Talons have acquired 25 year old first baseman Alejandro Ortiz and minor league reliever Harvey Finch. In exchange, 17 year old prospects John Hopkins and Swapan Katka are headed to the Mounties. In addition, the Mounties will be covering 100% of Ortiz's salary, which was key to the deal due to the Talons being up against the cap.

Alejandro Ortiz looks to be the Talons 1B against RHB, a role in which he has accumulated nearly 17 WAR in his first five seasons. He and Takeichi Ohayashi will both split time at 1B, which means that veteran Mons Raider will likely be squeezed off the roster. Raider has reportedly been placed on the Talons Trade Block.

Go talons!

Mid to late career Raider is tragic.
