Yankees trade: SP Jharrel Cotton OAK .51 (in minors on my team) To be in TC1 upon getting called up in our league. Rockies trade: 3B Adrian Beltre TEX 18/2017 18/2018 UFA/2019
Reason for trade: After the Turner injury I've been looking for an elite player to boost my offense. And while Paul DeJong has certainly done his part, Beltre is a top-notch hitter, who should allow me to go deep into the playoffs, and compete next season, with him and Turner in the lineup. Colorado is rebuilding, and gets a solid piece back in Cotton, a young pitcher with bright upside, and many years of control to help him compete for many years in the future.

I accept
I am not winning this year and may be more than a year away. Cotton adds a young pitcher to my staff that I can let struggle this year to hopefully make progress and be a strong contributor next season. I have a couple of very promising 3B prospects to take the place of Beltre next year or soon thereafter.
