Trade Details
ATHLETICS ADD PITCHER IRVIN Saturday, January 30, 2021
The Oakland Athletics acquired pitcher Cole Irvin from the Philadelphia Phillies for cash.
What does it give the Oakland Athletics?
In Irvin, the A's land a 27-year-old southpaw who can both start and relieve at the big-league level. He stands a good shot at making the big club out of spring training.
What does it give the Philadelphia Phillies?
The Phillies needed to created room on their 40-man roster for the return of shortstop Didi Gregorius, who re-signed with the team. So, Philadelphia moved out Irvin for cash.
Fantasy Impact
Irvin's fantasy value is extremely limited even if he were to work his way into Oakland's starting rotation. Therefore, do not draft Irvin.
