Blue Jays acquired OF Forrest Wall, 1B Chad Spanberger, and a player to be named later from the Rockies for RHP Seung Hwan Oh.
Wall had slashed .260/.340/.410 with nine home runs and 28 stolen bases in 93 games this season between the Rockies' High-A and Double-A teams. The 22-year-old was a supplemental first-round pick (35th overall) in 2014 out of a Florida high school. He began his pro career as a second baseman but has recently been playing center field.
Spanberger, a sixth-round pick in 2017 out of the University of Arkansas, has put up a terrific .307/.365/.594 batting line with 41 home runs and 126 RBI through his first 152 professional games between the rookie-level Pioneer League and the Low-A South Atlantic League. The 22-year-old first baseman could rise quickly through the Jays' farm system.
