Barfield to the Indians...

[samjjones]

Right now, I think this is a bad trade for SD. Barfield has already proven himself at the MLB level, his MiLB track record is pretty good, and he plays 2B.

Kouz has proven he can dominate AA as a 25 year old, and play a below average 3B defensively. Brown throws really hard, but can't hit the broadside of a barn.

If Kouz can improve defensively and hit .280 with plus power, and [if]if[/i] Brown can harness his command, this trade might work out to be even.
