Brewers send: 1B - Edwin Encarnacion –(TOR) '16 $10M
Pittsburgh sends: RP - Tyler Clippard (ARZ) - '16 $3.1M RP - Jumbo Diaz (CIN) - '16 $1.7M OF - Daz Cameron (HOU) prospect SP - Braden Shipley (ARI) prospect OF - Derek Hill (DET) prospectacular 2017 2nd round pick (Pitt)
Jay came looking for pieces that can help him out now and EE ended up the piece he was looking for. My main look in this trade was build for the future. Daz and Braden are good prospects and hopefully they make something of their careers in the future. Prospects are sometimes a hit and miss deal but always worth the gamble. And I land an additional pick in this draft that could hand me another decent piece. EE numbers will be missed but wroth the rebuild of my club. As always goods talks with Jay. I wish him the best of luck in his quest for glory.

Confirmed. Toronto is in the midst of his rebuild and I was looking for a piece to keep up with the Jones'. My lineup is under-performing in HR and RBI so I figured I would try to improve in this area. It would have been preferable to add someone with more club control beyond this year, but EE should be an impact player down the stretch. Clay took some salary in the form of one year contract that can easily be bought out and has no long term effect on his cap while add some intriguing pieces for the future. Considering the contract commitment/player's ages hopefully this is a win for each club.
I will make the corresponding roster moves to ensure cap compliance within the day.
