Segura to the Phillies

The Mariners trade hit machine Jean Segura to the Phillies:

And now he’s joining his fifth organization. His time with the Mariners has ended after two seasons and 269 games. On Monday morning, the Mariners reportedly agreed to pay $1 million to Segura to waive his full no-trade clause attached to that contract, allowing general manager Jerry Dipoto to trade him and relievers Juan Nicasio and James Pazos to the Philadelphia Phillies for first baseman Carlos Santana and shortstop J.P. Crawford.

Crawford is young enough that he could develop into a shortstop who does a good job of getting on base. The Mariner may flip Santana, so it’s tough to grade the trade right now. The Phillies got two decent pitchers as well so they look a lot better. However the Mariners side works out, the Phillies improved.
