I'm confused [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]. I don't like this trade for the Phillies. I think it is really bad for the White Sox. I'm just at a loss for an opinion.

Huh? They traded their back up first baseman and his albatross of a contract for a CF with and OPS of .800 or so last year. Nice work Phils, we'll be headed to another tough season in the NL East.

Quite a big difference between .736 and ".800 or so"

That is true. I was working from memory. Regardless, he is an upgrade for the Phillies in center field and they gave up a backup player with a huge contract.
