Kalapse Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Volquez is in the deal as well. EDIT: Holy s***, they got Grandal too. Reds acquire SD’s Mat Latos for Yonder Alonso, Brad Boxberger, Yasmani Grandal and Edinson Volquez. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtySox Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 (edited) Seriously that's a haul for the Padres. They have a glut of 1B corner OF types now though. Edited December 17, 2011 by DirtySox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They already have Rizzo who was the main piece in the AGon trade for 1B and Yonder playing LF at Petco sounds like a f***ing disaster.

Yonder in the Petco OF would be hilariously awful. Edited December 17, 2011 by Kalapse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd take Grandal alone for Danks, Latos is 24, under team control for 4 more seasons and has awesome upside; I'd say he's already considered a #2 by a lot of people, Jocketty included. His trade value was exponentially higher than that of Danks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan4life_2007 Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Sweet cheeks of Buddha that's a motherf***in' haul. But I like this more for the Reds. Votto and Mesoraco made Yonder Alonso irrelevant and Grandal expendable. Latos is the real deal. They needed an ace or close to an ace and they got one.
