KC / Pit trade

[alanv25]

KC sends:

Dan Vogelbach 600k x 3
David Bote 600k x 2
Kyle Farmer pc2022 (added by KC�after Vogelbach got cut per KC's note below)

Pit sends:

Trevor Williams 600k x 1
Patrick Sandoval 600k x 6
Josh James 600k x 3

Another minor trade to add depth in hitting.�My team needs infield help badly plus I have 3 minor league pitchers who got called up and I don't have enough cap to bring them to my major league roster, so I specifically requested to add a little cap in this trade.� KC graciously obliged, so I'm picking up 600k in cap.� Was planning to hang on to James due to his potential, still believe in him.� He had a strong stretch last year, then went on the IL.� Nate Lowe did not get called up to TB as I expected, so I've had a big hole at 1B this season.� Hence, my interest in Vogelbach, so received someone to give me at bats at 1B without giving up a Torres or Rendon.� Hate to give up Trevor who pitches some good games, but I have SP depth.��Bote gives me a little more infield flexibility, which I've sorely missed this year.� Earlier in this season, I had only 5 hitters in my lineup who were actually starting MLB games, so needed to balance out my pitching and hitting some.� Good talks with KC, who is on the road now but will confirm soon.

Kansas City Confirms.

We use the good hitting depth we have acquired over the years to upgrade our pitching staff, both in terms of upside and arms. Some players are not going to be long for this pitching staff, and these guys have a lot to do with it. Appreciate the good talks as always Alan and good luck!

Edit: I added Kyle Farmer to the deal after Vogelbach got cut. Alan did not ask for this, though he was appreciative. Simply thought it was the right thing to do.
