Need Battery Help? The Wolves have pitchers and a catcher available.

The Brooklyn Wolves are looking to make some changes and that means clearing out a few spare parts.

As it turns out, the two tradeable items that I have are starting pitching and a young, exciting catcher.

Let's start with the pitching:

First up, we have Antonio Cerda.  He can be used as a starter or in the bullpen.  He's 29, a southpaw and signed for this year at $1.8 and has one more arbitration year after this one.  Last year, he spent most of the year in the bullpen, putting together a record of 5-5, 3.77, 1.26 WHIP. 

We also have Sean Rice.  Rice is 26 and is making the league minimum.  He will be arbitration eligible after this season.  He was 13-4 last year, with a 5.52 ERA and 156 K.  He, too can be used in the rotation or in the bullpen (he came up as a reliever).

Another starter is Zhong Dee.  Dee is 28 and also pre-arbitration.  He's been in the bullpen the last two years, but that was only because of lack of room in the rotation. 

On the other end of the battery, we have Casimiro Lavasseur.  Lavasseur is 23, a first round selection in 2018.  A top prospect the last three years, Lavasseur has worked his way up the minor league ladder and is ready for the majors.  However, I have David Hamilton at the major league level and am prepared to stick with him (at least until Alexander Jones is ready for the majors). 

As for my needs  in return -- well, I could use prospects and draft picks. 

Feel free to send me an email.
