It is being reported that Franmil Reyes and Logan Allen have been traded to the Cleveland Indians in a three-team trade.
The San Diego Padres have reportedly dealt Logan Allen and Franmil Reyes in a trade that would ultimately net the team the #30 overall prospect in baseball, Taylor Trammel.
Trammel was a first-round pick in 2016 and currently playing at the Double-A level.
Here is a look at the trade. It is not completely official yet

The Padres are taking a pretty big risk in dealing Franmil Reyes who was loved by the fans.
Trammell brings a left-handed bat and potential centerfielder of the future, but it was a hefty price to pay.
I think this is a very good trade for the padres. Franmil has the big pop for sure, big personality, controllability, but….. I hv to admit his D is… hmm what’s the best way to put it.. when he makes a play on a basic pop up where he’d hv to move a little, he made it look like a spectacular play due to the effort it took for him to get there. Singles hit his way where constantly being turned into a doubles, doubles into triples. To be honest I don’t see that changing for the big guy. If… Read more »
To be honest…..just seems like same old Padres. Playing for “next year”. Or in this case…..2022???? Trammell doesn’t help us now, next year or even 2021. To sum it up….we traded a top 100 prospect, and a proven MLB power bat for a guy that can’t hit AA pitching. Seems about right. Kind of reminds me of last year with the Brad Hand trade…..lets get rid of an a young dominant closer (under team control for 3 more years!!!!) and an effective middle relief pitcher for a catcher that can’t hit Major League pitching or field his position….AWESOME!!!!

The Purloined Preller
Interesting move. We’re back to having Myers in LF, which might not be so bad. Reyes is a big liability in the field, and Myers is the only corner OF on the roster who could have made that running catch in the Paddack win. Perhaps Preller is finally valuing defense? Or are they simply high on Trammell and concerned about Reyes’ defense and conditioning issues? Trammell is a pretty good prospect, but in giving up Reyes, Allen and Nova for him, it might be there were 40 man roster considerations at play here as well. Are they done? If they… Read more »
For those who have forgotten (or never knew) how good Trammell is, here is the 2018 Future’s Game. Trammell was named MVP.

Let’s not forget that Margot was rated similarly, if not better, at a similar point. And that turned into a dud. At least Margot can play CF. Trammell is a lesser version of Margot who can’t play CF, and, even if everything goes right, is a couple of years away from helping.
