Re: Twins and DRays close to a Garza/Young swap
despite the overall evenness of the deal, i think this is brilliant for the devil rays. this trade addresses two major needs for the rays - starting pitching and infield defense, while dealing from strength. bartlett can keep shortstop warm for reid breignac, and then become a cheap but effective utility player afterwards (or be flipped for something else of need). harris was not much with the glove at short, and at 2nd he became expendable with iwamura's transition.
i think it's also very very good for the twins if they get phil hughes + for santana, even though i am nowhere near as high on young (nor, really, have i ever been) as others.
the DRays are fast becoming a very interesting team that i will be subtlely pulling for.
