You can't tell me you was'nt getting tired of stubbs striking out 11 out of 14 abs? I don't don't care how much choo strikes out but it can't be as bad as stubbs.Stubbs is a great guy but it was time for him to go get a fresh start someplace else.I wish him nothing but the best.

Re: Reds acquire Shin-Soo Choo and Jason Donald for Drew Stubbs and Didi Gregorious

Dunn struck out and was productive. Choo strikes out and is productive. Stubbs struck out and absolutely sucked. There's quite the difference. Yeah, it gets tiresome watching a guy have almost as much of an idea as me or you would at the plate. I wish him luck, he certainly has tools. But so did many a ballplayer that never amounted to much of anything.

I love getting Choo. How he fits into CF, we'll see but they'll work it out. What can you guys tell me about Jason Donald?

Has been good in the Minors. Has been pretty terrible in the Majors.

What are his skills? Obviously not pop in the bat but what's his throwing arm like? Foot speed?

More of a second baseman than shortstop. Fringy arm for short, not quite enough range for short. Can cover you there if you need it, but not someone you want playing there for a week straight.

He was solid in the Majors in 2011, but overall you're absolutely correct.

Donald hits much better against lefties. Hannahan would be a good compliment.
