So he called...

Reynolds: Hey man, how's going?

Doc Jaam, GM of the Arizona Diamondbacks, was on the other side of the line.

Doc: hey man, all good, just wrapping our season up, preparing for our retool.

Reynolds keep quiet for a second, then said.

Reynolds: Maybe, I could help you.

By Wednesday at 3 am, Robin and Doc had a deal in progress, it was just a matter of time

Reynolds walked down to his other office in the locker room, most players are home with their families at this time, but only 3 players were down at this time.

Team captain, Basebally McBaseballface, just had gotten out of the film room, I like to believe he was just working until this time, but there's a good chance he felt asleep.

Dominus Nominus, who since that mid-season article, works his ass off in the batting cage every day, he has headphones on, so I don't even try to speak to him.

And Donked McToad, still fresh out of the DL, he likes hanging out here at this time, I'm usually the last to leave so we chat a little, but this chat was different.

Have a seat, Donked. -Said Reynolds

Aye skip, what's good? -Answered Donked, not knowing what this was all about.

R: You're contract is up at the end of the season.

D: I am aware, are we here for a new deal, at 3 am in the morning?

R: No... Not really

D: oh... -Donked knew where this was going.

R: Tell me, can you handle heat? Because Arizona is a great place.

D: is the trade official yet?

R: not yet, wanted to check on you first.

D: is because I'm injury prone?

R: not at all, I just wanted to have you some more playtime, that maybe you won't get in here.

D: if I do well, would you pursue me in the offseason?

R: you will always have a place in my team, Donked.

D: go for it, go get us a ring.

By 5 am, the trade details were set, Robin was just waiting on Arizona's.

At 3PM, Reynolds phone was blowing up.

"Einhorn is on board, you have a deal" said a message from Doc Jaam, Reynolds had gotten the Fastest throwing Pitcher by average in Fake Baseball, he was now, even if it was just a rental, A Devil Ray.
