    Rockies would have to give up a hell of a lot more than one year of Story for Gray right?

    Reds and Rockies have 2-for-2 trade in place involving one “lesser” major league pitcher and one minor leaguer from both clubs, source tells The Athletic. On it:

    I’m conditioned to expect not much.

    So I’ll guess the Reds get the “lesser” major league pitcher and the better prospect.

    And I’ll guess Rockies get the lesser prospect and the better major leaguer.

    ...the 2-2 to Woodsen and here it comes...and it is swung on and missed! And Tom Browning has pitched a perfect game! Twenty-seven outs in a row, and he is being mobbed by his teammates, just to the thirdbase side of the mound.

    So Reds were likely going to non-tender Stephenson and were able to get something for him.

    Too bad, Bob Steve, you coulda been a contender.

    Good luck with Rockies.

    Hoffman really flamed out with the Rockies but was a highly touted prospect with really good stuff. Could be a shrewd pickup, or could just be another Jose De Leon. Either way seems like a solid roll of the dice. Case Williams was just drafted this year in the fourth round.

    Jameson, we hardly knew ye. Farewell Bob, and good luck pitching in Coors.

    https://www.denverpost.com/2020/06/1...kies-contract/

    Case Williams’ big-league dream was recorded on paper Wednesday.

    The Rockies’ fourth-round draft choice out of Douglas County High School agreed to terms with the club, making him the first of the Rockies’ six draft picks to sign a contract. Williams, the 110th overall pick in the draft, signed for a $450,000 bonus. The assigned slot value for the 110th pick was $527,800.

    “It’s a dream come true,” Williams said. “I’m so grateful for being drafted and signing with my hometown team and being able to represent my state. Go Rockies!”

    The 6-foot-3, 210-pounder had been committed to Santa Clara University.

    Williams, ranked as the top right-handed pitcher in the state by both Perfect Game and Prep Baseball Report, went 14-2 with a 2.98 ERA with 134 strikeouts in his high school career, including an 8-1 record with a 1.81 ERA and 79 strikeouts in 2019.

    Seems reasonable.
