I'm not a fan of this deal myself, but see why AA did it. I'd have stayed with Hill another year or so before dealing him simply because of the supply of quality 2nd basemen. He hasn't been the same for the past couple seasons, because of his concussion, but I'm thinking there's more to it. I'm far from a doctor, but he looks almost depressed, or simply stressed. I definitely hopes he makes a comeback, and of course, it'll be sad not having Johnny Mac in the Jays uniform. AA's just experimenting with this Johnson, but I'm sure it'll be a short stay for the guy.
