In Reed, the Giants acquire a 26-year-old outfielder who may be on the verge of a breakout campaign in MLB. San Francisco certainly hopes so, since the team is very thin in outfield talent at present time. Look for Reed to get a look as an everyday player early on in 2019, possibly in right field.

The Twins made this deal because Reed was on their 40-man roster and Andreoli does not have to be added, so this move creates an opening to add a prospect to the 40-man roster. Reed was not going to break camp with Minnesota, so they were able to find him a new home. Everybody wins.

Reed is starting to hit for more power (at least in the minors), and he also offers a bit of speed. Therefore, he could be a decent pickup in very deep leagues as a dart throw because the opportunity to play a lot is right in front of him in San Francisco. As for Andreoli, he will likely remain in the minors leagues for the foreseeable future. He offers no fantasy value.
