Jim Bowden of The Athletic suggests the Cleveland Guardians trade RHP Hunter Gaddis and RHP Cade Smith for Baltimore Orioles prospect Heston Kjerstad.
Orioles Receive: RHP Hunter Gaddis , RHP Cade Smith Guardians need to upgrade right field for the short- and long-term and acquiring Kjerstad, the second overall pick in the 2020 draft, would accomplish both aims … However, the
Orioles outfield is overcrowded … Kjerstad is talented but could be expendable … The Guardians could afford to deal both righties because they have a deep bullpen … along with relievers working their way back from injuries and more good arms in the minors who are ready for promotions.”From the Guardians’ point of view, this trade is a no-brainer. They get a power-hitting outfielder who hit .349/.431/.744 with 10 home runs and 39 RBI at Triple-A this season.

Cleveland should be all in on trying to acquire him, but the Orioles would be wise to ask for much more than two relief pitchers.
If anything, Kjerstad is a fascinating trade target for the Guardians as the deadline gets closer this summer.
