Teams can acquire/trade international slot money in increments of $250,000. The #SFGiants have made 2 trades for slot money this month, which should give them at least $500,000 for those keeping score at home.

The Giants announced the Kai-Wei Teng for Jancel Villarroel trade. Villarroel, 21, is a catcher and was Houston's No. 13 prospect last year. The Giants also got some international slot money, which could be helpful.

Jancel Villarroel was the Houston Astros No. 21 prospect, per Baseball America.

Over 100 games with Single-A/High-A, he slashed .259/.351/.388 with eight homers and 20 (!) steals.

He mainly caught but also spent time in left field, right field, second base and first base.

After signing Adrian Houser and Tyler Mahle, the Giants had a surplus of young starting pitching waiting in the wing.

On Thursday evening, they trimmed that group by sending Kai-Wei Teng to the Houston Astros.

Teng has a really interesting year. ERA (6.37) and walks (12.2 BB%) weren’t great, but his strikeout rate spiked (28.1%). But the Giants had a log jam of young pitchers and Teng probably wouldn’t have gotten many opportunities aside from the bullpen.

Per ZiPS, the #SFGiants currently project at 84 wins and 50.1% playoff odds.

Valdez + a second baseman would potentially push them into upper 80s territory. When two moves can make a major difference... just do it.
