After a relatively quiet weekend, several notable MLB moves were made in rapid succession on Monday.
First, Jon Heyman of CBS Sports reported that the Miami Marlins and Giancarlo Stanton had reached an agreement on a 13-year, $325 million contract.
Then, Russell Martin signed a five-year, $82 million pact with the Toronto Blue Jays, as reported by Ken Rosenthal.
And finally, the Atlanta Braves announced they had engineered a four-player swap with the St. Louis Cardinals that included Jason Heyward and Shelby Miller.
Like we said, it was a notable day, and while those stories dominated the headlines, there are other matters that demand our attention.
As a standard note, the following proposals are nothing more than postulation. The point here is to build a trade based on someone else's written or spoken word.
They are balanced deals that are fair for each team, though, and take into consideration each franchise's strengths and weaknesses.
Here are three MLB trade scenarios based on actual need and published rumors from the last week.
