Reds: They get the glaring hole in the lineup, SS, filled with the best one in the MLB. Senzel will hurt, but he doesn't have a spot in the lineup with the crowded outfield and moustakas at second. They also trade their 5th round pick in 2020, Joe Boyle, a really big right handed pitcher with an elite fastball that reaches 102, he also has a high 80's slider, but he doesn't really have a third pitch which is something he should work on. Braves: The Braves don't do anything too big but they do get another starter in Jon Gray. The Braves could definitely use a 5th starter and Jon Gray fills it perfectly, if he can control his hits/9 and strikeout more batters, he can become a really good pitcher, like we saw in 2017. The concerning thing about Gray is that he landed on the IR last year and didn't pitch well before then. The Braves do give up their first round pick this year in Jared Schuster, but it was a reach of a pick anyways and definitely surprised people when he was taken in the first round. Schuster definitely has a lot of potential as he increased his fastball velocity from the high 80's - low 90's, into the mid 90's even touching 97. His big problem in college were the walks, he doesn't have the cleanest delivery and forfeited 5.2 walks/9 in college. However, he does have a good changeup and a promising slurve. The Braves also get rid of Victor Vodnik, who has a deceiving fastball, however his stuff isn't too good and neither is the control. On the Rockies I could see him fitting into a relief role or possibly even a spot starter role. Rockies: They get Nick Senzel, Jared Schuster, and Victor Vodnik. They can all be important figures in the future. The Rockies will have control of Senzel until he becomes a free agent in 2026. Schuster and Vodnik will probably have to spend a couple more years in the minors to develop, and maybe even a delivery change would be for the better. ****Comment Your Thoughts Down Below, I DO Read Them****
