Shackamaxon and Brick have a unique trade to announce, involving just-drafted players. Heading from the Brick organization to the Lenape's Delaware Valley rookie league team is LF Elwood Bolden, a recent 2nd round pick by Brick. In return, Brick will receive SP Rodrigo Padilla, himself a recent 3rd round pick by Shackamaxon. Bolden was selected nine spots before Padilla in the 2028 amateur draft.
"We actually rated Elwood as the #15 prospect in the draft," Shackamaxon GM Michael Weintraub stated. "So when Fred expressed interest in Padilla, whom we ranked 19th, it wasn't hard to make that swap.
"Padilla was also the 5th starting pitcher we drafted, and we didn't select any outfielders. Getting the #3 ranked OF on our board was a coup."
