The Reds get a replacement for Candleario in Mead and Morel. They get a major impact bat prospect. Just a year ago, Mead and Morel were highly coveted. I think Cincy comes out well in this deal. The Rays get the closest thing to Zobrist that exists in the game. McClain can play golf glove CF, gold glove 2b, and average or better SS, while getting a great RH bat. I doubt McClain could be had, but I would trade anyone who isn't Caminero for him.
Yeah, I’d do this trade in a heartbeat. Mead and Morel have very little value and aren’t (or shouldn’t be) in the Rays’ plans for the future. Isaac could be really good but the Rays have an abundance of riches at 1B as is.
