Rockies/Angels Trade

[Angels GM (Chase)]

Angels Trade
---------------------------------
SP Miguel Gonzalez

Rockies Trade
---------------------------------
SS/3B Rosell Herrera
OF Ryan Wheeler
Rockies 4th round pick in 2013 amateur draft
Rockies 1st round pick in 2014 amateur draft


Angels trade a solid SP who's had a breakout season this year but get a couple prospects with promise plus draft picks that will continue to stock up our farm system. Considering the Angels won't compete this year, this deal made sense.

Angels gain $100,000 in salary

Herrera to minors, Wheeler to inactive 40 man roster

[Rockies GM (Nick)]

Accept. Gonzalez is a solid pitcher and will help me compete this year. Although I give up a lot of picks and prospects I feel Gonzalez was worth it. Gonzalez to active 25 man roster. Send J Johnson to inactive 40 man roster to make room
