The trade that will send Cole Hamels to the Texas Rangers involves eight players and a significant amount of cash with six players headed to the Philadelphia Phillies.

Texas will receive Hamels, reliever Jake Diekman and $9.5 million in exchange for Matt Harrison, pitching prospects Jake Thompson, Alec Asher and Jared Eickhoff, catching prospect Jorge Alfaro and outfield prospect Nick Williams.

Hamels is signed through 2018 and is guaranteed $82.1 million, plus a club/vesting option in 2019.

Philadelphia will be responsible for all $32 million of what is owed to Harrison through 2017.
