Sensible trade, VD. Not sure if I'd have paid that much, but not unreasonable.
the 3b is above average at almost everything but not great, the SP's health rating worried me a bit, and the setup guy had real nice durability, but his splits made him expendable.
unfortunately nieves will probably play some OF for me, and my lack of focus on defense will continue. with dewitt being 33 or whatever and armas likely gone i simply had to have a big bat, and that nieves was 25 made it for me.
adding nieves to javier and dewitt (for another season or two) keeps the big 3 bat emphasis i like to have
