Cubs/Angels

[Cubs GM (Mavfatha)]

Angels receive:
2B Marcus Semien (contract: 20M in 23, 20M in 24)
5M of his contract covered in 23
5M of his contract covered in 24

Cubs receive:
C Jonah Heim (3)
3B Anthony Rendon (contract: 15M in 23)
RHP Cody Morris (minors)
RHP Taylor Dollard (minors)
OF Cade Marlowe (minors)

Accept. I have literally no idea if this is a good trade for either of us but it sure was fun to put together.

[Angels GM (Alex)]

Accept. Front end talent

[Red Sox GM (Mike)]

I talked to Phil about the only trade I've ever vetoed. If the Cubs feel strongly about this trade please indicate that.The top 2B in the MLB according to some being traded for this seems light to me. Abstain.

[Pirates GM (Cole)]

Honestly a very one sided trade, and not a great reasoning from the losing side, in my opinion.

Veto.

[Cubs GM (Mavfatha)]

For what it's worth, this was also a sign and trade, which to me skews the valuation/reasonable expected return. I can understand why it would be vetoed though

[Rockies GM (Micah)]

I’m fine with it.

[Orioles GM (Denver)]

Cubs can see why it’s a veto, and I feel it’s light.

Sounds like a veto to me.

[Mets GM (Sean)]

I feel like there needs to be a better centerpiece in the return, so I veto.

A sign and trade shouldn’t be full value. I think this fair. I pass

[Padres GM (Russi)]

Honestly the Cubs essentially just traded 10m for a bunch of assets and angels gets a top 5 2B don't love it long term for the angels but it makes sense if you want to win now and the Cubs are playing smart rebuild he gets rid of a big contract and nets a nice haul. Pass.

[Royals GM (Kramer)]

Veto. Trade would be fine enough I guess if it didn’t include Rendon. A salary dump shouldn’t turn into a top 2B + cash just because a couple pretty decent spects are involved. Just rework it. Cubs reasoning here wasn’t convincing to pass this for me. Sorry. If you love the spects you’re getting than say so I guess because Semien for this package isn’t passable as it is.

[Tigers GM (Max)]

Trade is vetoed. No changes made

Because of the slow voting on this trade, I will allow these two teams 24 hours from now to post a revised trade. If that trade is vetoed, no other concessions will be made
