Sean Manaea and Kelvin Herera for Lance McCullers.

Confirmed. Excited to get McCullers, but tough price to pay with a top prospect in Manaea and a great reliever in Herrera.

This deal was not agreed upon on the board by Pittsburgh before the deadline

We both posted it pre deadline. Agreed to prior to the deadline.

Guys, this is not good. We can't have 2 threads on the board for the same trade. Please fix it and then it'll be reviewed/processed. Thanks.

Pitt gives:
SP Lance McCullers (HOU) 500K, 500K , 1M, 2M, 3M
Oak Gives: SP - Sean Manaea (OAK) – prospect call-up RP - Kelvin Herrera KC RP 16: $2.55m
Pitt GM desired to move on from an injured McCullers in return for a former #1 pick in Manaea and a solid bullpen arm to offset the loss of Bedrosian in an earlier deal. With McCullers status up in the air for the stretch run, I tried to gamble and get some innings from a different starter.
This is the cleaned up version of a double posted deal before at the deadline. My humblest apologies for being a grown-up and not being able to figure out who was posting and who was accepting in the fake game of baseball. Whatever the Commissioner rules on this deal is completely fine with me.

My fault I think on this, but just wanted to make sure the deal got posted pre deadline.

Confirmed. This is the cleaned up confirm. I wanted to take a shot at McCullers once Pitt put him up on the block. We came together pretty quickly on the primary piece (Manaea), and then negotiated up to the deadline to get the final version with Herrera. Obviously there is risk in this deal for me, but I'm hoping that this latest injury does not signal a trend for McCullers and that he can retain the form he showed at the beginning of the year.
