Trenton Traffic trades R.J. Toca to Monterrey Sultans for Enrique Park and Johnnie Reagan (1/20/08).
It seems like many teams are building for the future in season 1, but Monterrey is built to win now. In Toca, the Sultans acquired a front of the rotation starter who, at 31-years-old, will be a good one for the next few seasons. Health could be a concern with Toca’s 57 rating in that department, but his splits and great control will make him a key component in Monterrey’s run at the World Series.
In exchange for Toca, Trenton picked up power hitting third base prospect Enrique Park and pitching prospect Johnnie Reagan, who could wind up the best player in the deal. Reagan boasts projected 73 stamina, 94 control, 77/80 splits, and two elite pitches to go with two more above average ones (91, 92, 66, 62). Reagan’s makeup is low (projected 48) so it will take some good coaching in the minors to help him reach those projections, but at 22-years-old, he’s got a couple seasons he can spend working on those before pitching in the majors.
