Deal is confirmed

The Cape Bear Bandits continue clearing the house as veteran players (SP JA Happ and SS Jose Iglisais ) were sent packing along with the Bandits 3rd round FA pick in the upcoming draft to the "Covid Desert Horny Old Mutants" in a 5 player deal.

BREAKDOWN of Players Received:

RF Brandon Nimmo (.280/8/18) .404 OBP
Nimmo saw a sharp drop in flyball rate down to 16.1% from 28% in 2019, suggesting 2021 HR regression. Alternatively, Nimmo's strikeout and barrel rate both increased, and his walk rate remained elite. These factors, coupled with a sharp increase in groundball rate, slight increase in line drive rate, and consistency in his exit velocity on FB/LD (92.3 mph), suggest continued solid batting average and elite on-base performances for 2021 in a possible lead-off position for the Bandits.Only 27 Nimmo will be 1 of the veterans called on to lead the rebuilding Bandits.

SS Paul DeJong (.250/3/25) .325 OBP
Bandit fans will be hoping that SS deJong will regain the power that saw his HR production drop from 30 Hr's in 2019 to just 3 in the Covid 2020 season.Right now he is the perfect back-up to Jorge Polanco as the team continues its rebuilding.

SP Logan Gilbert (PROSPECT,RANK:#10)
"Anytime you can land a top 10 SP prospect you have to take that chance," GM Pork "CHOPS" Murphy said after the deal was finished late Tuesday night. "With SP Grayson "G-Rod" Rodriguez acquired last week(RANKED #7) this gives our team a chance for the future to have 2 very good starting pitcher atop of our rotation. Gilbert is a four-pitch starter – fastball, curveball, slider, changeup – and all four project as major-league offerings. He’s big, strong, athletic and has handled everything thrown at him thus far. His next developmental step puts him on the brink of the big leagues.

The Bandits also recieved the Covid Desert Horny Old Mutants #1 prospect pick in 2021

The following players are up for trade as the team will be starting over and commit to a 3 year plan
We will take players back but looking for prospects or young players :


1: 1B/3B Yandy Diaz ...307/2/11 .428 OBP 34 games

2: DH/1B Daniel Vogelbach ...209/6/16

I’ve had some J.Baez -SS talk.

If interested think 2018/2019 prices.

I’ll always listen though.

Me and Oldmansmith2 have Starlin Castro written on our rosters. I believe I own Castro because I drafted him in the 5th round last FA draft. I think Sean Reflex cut him for said draft.

I did indeed cut him prior to last year's draft.
