Yeah, lame, but they needed the CI bat much more than another OF...
That doesn't justify trading a player of higher value for one of lower value. The Jays scouts and GM must see something beyond the stats or feel that Wallace being pushed a little more than Taylor puts them as roughly equals. But right now Taylor has shown more power, better walk rate, lower K rate, isn't as slow as Paul Konerko, and isn't as likely to be relegated to 1B/DH
