The Minnesota Rockies and LA Reds agree to the following:
LA Reds send: Alex Wood LAD SP/RP 2017 $0.5M 2018 $1M 2019 $2M 2020 $3M LA Reds 11th Round Pick 2018
Minnesota Rockies send: Steven Matz, NYM; SP 2017: $0.5M; 2018: $0.5M; 2019: $0.5M; 2020: $0.5M Daniel Gossett, OAK, P Minor League
LA Reds agree to the trade. Alex Wood is having a great season and will make the DD3 race for first even tighter in our league. I'm going all in on a full recovery with Matz. Hopefully it pays off. I did hedge my bet a little with Gossett who I own in another league and watched live from 10 rows back as he pitched 6 scoreless this past Saturday. He could be pretty decent.
Best of luck to Henry who is likely asleep now. Like the late Stuart Scott said, You are "cooler that the other side of the pillow".

Rockies agree
Wow, poetry in a trade post! Well I hope the title this year can prove less elusive than the other side of the pillow, and that Wood can make the difference in a tight race.
I love Matz but the Mets are foundering and I worry that the babysteps rehab will lead to diluted performance, and right now I need all hands on deck. Before the season trading Matz for Wood would have been a hesdscratcher but Wood is out of his mind right now and this is my chance to catch lightning in a bottle. Given wood's possible upside Sam was totally right to ask for a young pitcher on top and Gossett is a good choice, I hope he does well. Best of luck to Sam, top dude but gotta say that his profile pick looks awfully young for a someone with 3 kids!
