D. Paulino - RP

Phillies signed RHP David Paulino to a minor league contract.

The 26-year-old Paulino was once a top-100 prospect, but he's dealt with an injuries and also served a PED suspension. He last pitched with the Blue Jays in 2019 and holds a 5.48 ERA over 16 appearances in the majors. The Phillies are willing to see what he can do.

Added 1:21 pm (EST)

N/A

E. Rodriguez - C

NYM

Pirates acquired C Endy Rodriguez from the Mets in a three-team trade.

The Mets gave up Rodriguez in order to land Joey Lucchesi from the Padres. Rodriguez, 20, hits from both sides of the plate and holds a promising .276/.389/.452 batting line through his first 66 games in pro ball. He's seen some time at first base and in the outfield, but obviously he'd be a lot more interesting if he sticks behind the plate. He's a name worth following for Pittsburgh.

Added 1:19 pm (EST)

N/A

J. Lucchesi - SP

NYM

Mets acquired LHP Joey Lucchesi in a three-team trade with the Padres and Pirates.

As reported on Monday, Lucchesi is headed to New York while the Mets will send prospect C Endy Rodriguez to Pittsburgh. The southpaw only appeared in three games with the Padres last season and appeared to be blocked going into 2021, but he posted a 4.14 ERA in 56 starts between 2018-2019. He also has options remaining and will be under team control through 2024. While Lucchesi could push Steven Matz for a rotation spot during spring training, he's mostly a wait and see option in fantasy leagues.

Added 1:11 pm (EST)

N/A

O. Cruz - SP

Pirates acquired LHP Omar Cruz from the Padres in the Joe Musgrove deal.

Cruz, 21, posted a 2.73 ERA and 76/19 K/BB ratio in 56 innings over 12 starts between Low-A Tri City and Class A Fort Wayne in 2019. He has a chance to make it as a back-end starter in the majors.

Added 1:09 pm (EST)

N/A

D. Bednar - RP

Pirates acquired RHP David Bednar from the Padres in the Joe Musgrove trade.

Bednar, 26, has made 17 relief appearances with the Padres over the past two seasons while posting a 6.75 ERA and 19/7 K/BB ratio over 17 1/3 innings. Still, he has a solid arsenal and has a chance to emerge as a trusted bullpen arm.

Added 12:54 pm (EST)

N/A

H. Head - CF

Pirates acquired OF Hudson Head, LHP Omar Cruz, and RHPs David Bednar and Drake Fellows from the Padres for RHP Joe Musgrove.

The Pirates didn't manage to land one of the Padres' top prospects, but Head has some potential. The 19-year-old received $3 million as a third-round pick in 2019 before hitting .283/.383/.417 with one homer and three steals over 32 games in rookie ball. With excellent speed and the ability to hit for average, he's a name to watch in dynasty leagues.

Added 12:43 pm (EST)

N/A

E. Ramírez - RP

NYM

Tigers signed RHP Erasmo Ramirez to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.

The 30-year-old had a 0.63 ERA in six relief appearances with the Mets in 2020. He'll give the Tigers some veteran depth going into camp.

Added 11:02 am (EST)

N/A

J. Teheran - SP

Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports that the Marlins will have a representative at the showcase for Julio Teheran and Anibal Sanchez on Tuesday in Miami.

The Mets and Rays are among the other teams expected to be in attendance. The Marlins have a very young rotation, so it makes sense that they'd consider adding a veteran arm to eat some innings. Of course, Sanchez spent the first seven seasons of his major league career with the Marlins. Now 36, he posted a rough 6.62 ERA and 43/18 K/BB ratio over 53 innings with the Nationals last year. Teheran, 29, had a brutal 10.05 ERA over nine starts and one relief appearance with the Angels in 2020.
