Need to hurry up and get all of the ink dry before the Indians realize what they've done.

Awesome! No more Stubbs

I'll miss Didi, but he wasn't a proven guy and had nowhere to play. Great trade Walt!

I love this deal, Choo could provide for a possible compensation pick after next season if he has a huge year and we give him a compensation offer which would make sense since he is a Boras client.

Re: Per MLB traderumors. Shin-Shoo Choo completed

The beauty of a move like this is that it makes the rest of the lineup fall into place. Is anyone else surprised that Arizona gave up Trevor Bauer?

Now we will be able to hand over CF to Billy Hamilton in 2014, but also have a great CF in 2013. Man I love this.

Choo is definitely a step up over Stubbs. Choo is projected to have a higher OPS by about .100 next year. That will be huge as leadoff. Good deal, Walt.
