Seth Beer, J.B. Bukauskas, Corbin Martin Heading To Arizona
5 years agoThe Arizona Diamondbacks acquired first baseman/outfielder Seth Beer, right-hander J.B. Bukauskas, righty Corbin Martin and infielder Josh Rojas from the Houston Astros on Wednesday in the blockbuster deal that sent starting pitcher Zack Greinke to the Astros. It's one big prospect haul for the D-Backs, as Beer was ranked as Houston's No. 3 prospect, while Bukauskas came in at No. 4, Martin at No. 5 and Rojas at No. 22. With Houston's major league roster already stacked at most positions, this trade now means that Beer, Bukauskas and Martin are much closer to major league action in the desert. Beer is the most fantasy relevant and could be the team's starter at first base at some point next year. Martin has plenty of upside but might not be an option until 2021 after undergoing Tommy John surgery.
