I know what Rasmus brings (and I wouldn't be so quick with the 5 tools until you watch him attempt to hit for average) and agree that if it is the White Sox return than that is a good deal, but I think the first deal pretty much negates that.
What I don't understand if it is basically ending up as a 3 team deal than why not take the much better package that went to the White Sox.
Hopefully there is something more as although I am happy that Rasmus is gone would have expected something much more in return than Teahen/Jackson.
