Cutthroats send Orlando Arica (milb) and their 3rd round pick in the upcoming draft to the Madmen in exchange for Anthony Rizzo (2018/$2m). Rizzos contract to be prorated for the remainder of the 2017.

Thanks Brian

Works for salary cap and roster purposes. Approved.

Based on on Excel Roster Files I don't believe Rizzo is a 2018 contract. It shows him extended in 1/15 and that he goes from a 2016 contract to a 2017 contract.

From 1/5/15
Anthony Rizzo (2016) First baseman $250,000 Promoted 12/12

From 1/16/15
Anthony Rizzo (2017) First baseman $2,000,000 Promoted 12/12, extention 01/15

Good catch Matt. I have Rizzo on the rosters as being a 2017 contract. Please let us know what you guys want to do with this trade.

I am in agreement Rizzo was always 2017 is which I was trading him. I will wait for Cuttthroats to re-confirm.

I am assuming that was just a typo in the trade post and processed the trade in the database

For clarification, this wasn't a typo but an error on my part. For whatever reason (as communications with Rod and Matt reflect) I was purposefully looking for a 2018 position player and in my notes of potential targets included Rizzo. Since this is entirely my error, I will honor the trade but want to note the error as prior trades can be used to guage current market.
