Marlins get 1B prospect Lewin Diaz in Romo deal. Stellar d, power

[Eye Black]

The weird part about this trade is the Twins are giving up a 1B prospect (Lewin Diaz), but getting back a RHP prospect (Chris Vallimont) that was the Marlins 5th round selection last year and has been very good so far in his short career. The Twins may end up not only receiving Romo but may have also acquired the best prospect in the deal (obviously only time will tell).

Which isn't going to make them feel better when they piss away this lead and miss the playoffs yet again which I predicted like 2 months ago~.

Curious trade with the Twins getting the RP with no huge salary to eat, A+ Arm and PTBNL for a AA 1B. Not what you commonly see from buyer/seller roles. Will say that along with the Diekman deal, the prices so far for relief pitching don't bother me at all.
