Pirates, Mariners Complete Arquimedes Caminero Swap

By Jeff Todd | September 1, 2016 at 7:17pm CDT

The Pirates and Mariners have completed the deal that sent righty Arquimedes Caminero to the Mariners a few weeks back. Per an announcement from Seattle, lefty Jake Brentz and righty Pedro Vasquez will go to Pittsburgh to wind up the trade.

Caminero, 29, has been a solid piece for the M’s since the deal, cutting his walk rate but otherwise largely continuing to deliver useful but hardly world-beating frames. On the year, he has thrown 55 innings of 3.60 ERA ball with 7.0 K/9 against 4.1 BB/9.

Pittsburgh will pick up a pair of young arms in return. The 21-year-old Brentz has experienced some command issues early in his career, but generated better than a strikeout per inning at the Class A and High-A level for most of the season. Vasquez, 20, earned a mid-season promotion out of Rookie ball and has turned in a 2.28 ERA with 6.2 K/9 against just 0.8 BB/9 in his eight starts at Class A Clinton.

    Wow, that was scary. I thought they meant the M’s had traded him away.

    not a bad return for the pirates. Arqie has one heck of a gun on him but after he hit two people in the head in one game the writing was on the wall for his time in Pittsburgh. He did get it mostly figured out though and after some rehab games did fairly well.

    I’m glad he is having some success, i have a feeling we will be hearing a lot more from him in the future.
