Shackamaxon/Brick trade

During a Sunday brunch meeting at a neutral site (Mastori's Diner in Bordentown, NJ), division rivals and soon-to-be family members Fred Goldfarb, GM of Brick, and Michael Weintraub, GM of Shackamaxon, agreed on a trade involving prospects.

Brick receives one of Shackamaxon's top prospects, OF/IF Juan Arroyo, along with a seventh round pick in the 2025 amateur draft, in exchange for pitching prospects Sergio Lujan and Harry Wagner.

In between sips of his soup, Michael Weintraub shared: "We had a log jam of outfield prospects, so we tried Juan at shortstop this season. The experiment wasn't working out, as he had 31 errors in 55 games at short."

"We had asked for pitching prospects in exchange for hitting prospects, and Fred here was willing to oblige."
