Boston gives:
Michael Brantley CLE 17: 7.5M / 18: 11M
Pitt gives:
Matt Harvey (NYM) 17: 5.7M / 18: 6.7M 2018 1st rd pick
I had some pitching to spare and needed a bat so a deal with Tripp came together quickly. Brantley and Harvey have the same amount of years to control and each come with risks. I know Tripp loves his picks so I sweetened the pot with a first rounder in case Harvey continues to spiral into Kenny Powers. Hopefully it works out for each side and as with any deal only time will tell.

Agreed, quick and painless talks that lead to a deal that I think helps us both. My pitching has been decimated with injuries. Hopefully Harvey can contribute positively in the second half and in 2018. Plus I love me some Kenny powers. I have a ton of outfield depth in he majors and minors and thought the swap was worth it to add a coveted first rounder. Great deal J!
