Yeah given what we've seen in recent years for rentals this is probably a decent trade. Although looking online I'm not sure Orioles fans are thrilled with it. With Diaz, he hasn't shown much power yet and he has speed but gets caught stealing a ton.

Diaz did whack 2 HR's in the futures game maybe upped his stock a bit.

Baseball Pro has Diaz as a top 30 guy on its midseason list. I generally think that’s a better list than the more popular BA.
That’s a decent return for the Orioles. Light one prospect than if they’d traded him in the offseason, But good for a rental. |

Indians making a move to try and improve their awful bullpen. Got Brad Hand and reliever Adam Cimber, but they gave up a ton to get him. Gave up their top prospect Francisco Mejia.
Interesting move in an AL that is so top heavy. Feels like Brad Hand had been in trade rumors for years now, they finally pulled the trigger. |

Come on guys. You know better than this. Hand is under contract for 2 more years with a club option for the following year. They control him through the end of 2021.
It's not really rocket science, 3 month rentals don't get much, 3 year rentals do. I'm surprised they gave up Mejia but they get to add a really good piece to their pen while they have still have guys like Lindor, etc. |

Still relief pitchers don't normally net that.
