Why take an average 2nd baseman just to take a 2nd baseman, when you can draft a four tool OF and trade him for an above average 2nd baseman?
Just IMO of course.

No I agree with the philosophy too, and with how aggressive he has been in making trades those spots could be filled real quick with already developed talent. Mostly just curious about the long term plan on the right side of the diamond. Will be interesting to see what happens in the trade market now that it is set to pick up also.
