Trade Details
WASHINGTON ACQUIRES CATCHER BUTLER Wednesday, January 14, 2015
The Washington Nationals acquired catcher Dan Butler from the Boston Red Sox for pitcher Danny Rosenbaum.
What does it give the Washington Nationals?
This is merely a depth move for the Nationals, as Butler will add catching depth behind Ramos Lobaton and Leon in D.C.
What does it give the Boston Red Sox?
Rosenbaum is a 27-year-old left-hander with modest numbers and ability, so he will merely add some starting depth for Triple-A Pawtucket.
Fantasy Impact
Neither Butler nor Rosenbaum should be on the fantasy baseball radar, despite the trade. Both are marginal talents, at best.
