its funny because the dodgers fans are jumping all over this guy for offering up jackson and thurston..i guess they are ranked pretty high up in the dodgers farm system...jackson turned 20 in sept last year and had a great month..he is the 3rd rated prospect in the dodgers org and 99th in all of baseball..
this thurston guy i cant find too much out about him other than he he had a hell of a year at AAA..334 39D , 13T ,12HR , 55 rbi and 22 sb's..set franchise record with 197 hits , which also led all of the minors...
if this thurston guy is a legit prospect id make that trade..iishi , who is only 30 can replace what garland has done in the past...cause i really thinkl willie harris is gonna lay a big one this year and we will still need a lead off hitter / 2nd baseman...
this trade swings in the sox favor imo because we save about 6 million in salary with konerko vrs iishi
