"I kinda felt bad for the guy," said Seattle Owner/GM Mack Shultz. "Michael was begging and pleading with the league to take some of his relievers off his hands. I'm a soft touch, so I caved."
In the deal, Seattle acquired AAA reliever Kwang-sub Kim as depth in case of injury. To make the trade, Seattle sent Shackamaxon a fifth-round pick and, in exchange, received Shackamaxon's seventh-round pick.
"Also, it had been a while since we made a deal with Shackamaxon," continued Shultz. "He's been making a bunch of deals with other owners and I felt a little left out. It's like I'm not Michael's favorite trading partner now. I had to do something to breathe new life into our close relationship, and a date night seemed inappropriate."
