Last week, a very curious trade took place between the Arizona Diamondbacks and Atlanta Braves. The D-Backs moved injured veteran Bronson Arroyo along with 19 year old prospect RHP Touki Toussaint in exchange for utilityman Phil Gosselin, with Atlanta taking on the entire remainder of Arroyo’s salary. The move essentially amounted to the Diamondbacks selling Toussaint, ranked by Baseball America as the number 71 overall prospect prior to the season, for the roughly $10 mil owed to Arroyo, who is recovering from Tommy John surgery and may not even pitch this season.
Should the Milwaukee Brewers Consider “Selling” a Prospect?
