I am sure this has been addressed here, but I couldn't find the thread. Does anybody know what was going thru Rick and Kenny's minds when they traded an effective closer for a 3rd baseman who can't seem to hit .200 in AAA. And we really don't need another 3rd baseman. Is there something here that I am not aware of....injury or drug/alcohol issues?
A rebuilding team doesn't really need a closer like Reed. Davidson was very good at 3B last year and despite his electric start, Gillaspie is viewed as a backup or platoon player at best. Davidson is the third baseman of the future. Welcome to SoxTalk.
