Just before the Monday trade deadline, the Tampa Bay Rays sent Matt Moore, Steve Pearce and Brandon Guyer to three separate teams and in return, received a quality infielder in Matt Duffy and five prospects who are currently at Class-A ball or lower.
Did they make the right trades? Only time will tell but it doesn’t hurt to examine each trade and see if the Tampa Bay Rays Rays are headed in the right direction.
The biggest deal sent Moore to San Francisco for infielder Matt Duffy and minor leaguers Lucius Fox and Michael Santos.
