One of the first things I wanted to do this offseason for the San Diego Padres in our Faux Winter Meetings was find a trade partner for Wil Myers.
Again, even though we have an expert dedicated to all 30 teams, it’s hard to negotiate with everybody as we all have real-world jobs as well.
I did reach out to the Seattle Mariners and Kansas City Royals about possibly taking on Myers’ contract but both turned me down pretty quick.
It was the Detroit Tigers who were willing to take on Myers — but it did cost us.
