Looks like he wasn't involved with the trade. This is from Boddy's Reddit AMA
https://www.reddit.com/r/Reds/commen...r_of_pitching/No, actually! I was not involved in that decision at all. But I'm quite excited to work with JDL.

Does anyone know if Brian O'Grady and cash is the payback for De Leon or now they both still owe each other a PTBNL and cash?
Whatever it is keep tinkering with players in the Rays system, it's always one of the best feeder systems in baseball. TBay doesn't miss very often though, so tread lightly...
They do have depth at MI and SP in their pipeline and are always looking at shedding arbitration eligible players, so having a decent working relationship with their F.O. makes everyone feel better than any dealings with LAD or NYY.
Glad the Reds ponced all over the chance to get De Leon before he needs the Fountain of Youth to reinvigorated himself- he could be shipped to Florida at that point.

I think Antone at 29 is new also.

The last time MLB Pipeline did a full evaluation to get to these rankings was nearly a year ago. They slot in new draft picks based on little more than their draft position and about a month of play in rookie league. Wait until the 2020 rankings come out (around January or February) before criticizing it.

Derek Johnson strikes again? People have been wondering what happened to De León's fastball. Apparently it has returned.

His “new arm” doesn’t feel foreign to him. The Isabela, Puerto Rico native recalls former Tampa Bay teammates Alex Cobb and Nathan Eovaldi saying that theirs did feel different after surgery, but he hasn’t experienced that sensation. What he has experienced is a velocity rejuvenation. When I talked to him a few days before camps were shut down, De León told me that he’d been 95-96 in his most-recent outing, the firmest his heater had been in years. Moreover, he didn’t recall ever throwing that hard, that early.

We still have him, right?De León's return to close to the form that once made him a top 25 prospect is sneakily sliding under the radar.
