Braves got Murphy and so far the only thing confirmed they gave up was William Contreras.
EDIT: Freddy Tarnok and Pina as well. Contreras to the Brewers and Tarnok + Esteury Ruiz + Manny Pina to the A's. That doesnt look like the A's were asking for anything outrageous that should scare a team off. Last edited by jd1020; 12-12-2022 at 02:58 PM.. |

Kyle Muller going from the Braves to A's as well. Still feels like the Brewers should be giving up A LOT more in this deal.

How did the Brewers get William Contreras for nothing?

I think it's ridiculous, too.
It's amazing the value that Esteury Ruiz is fetching after his breakout season. He first was the key piece in the Josh Hader deal and then he basically gets flipped by himself for William Contreras. I think he's a intriguing player with the new 2023 rules (85 steals in the minors last year), but he's a total Judy, too.

For 10+ years to avoid the luxury tax. I'd bet money that MLB is going to step in on these long term contracts.
During the Pujols era until a couple of years ago, we were on the top 10 spenders, usually 8/9 but not so bad. Now, we fell out of the top ten to 13th spot in 2022. But, a lot of that money was spent poorly. Fan Graphs has them at $164 million. Up from the $163 million from last year.

Seems like a lot of money for Carpenter without having the benefit of the short right field of Yankees stadium.
