OAK/BOS

[Deleted]

The Oakland Athletics have agreed to trade:

C Jacob Nottingham $0.3 MIL 1st m.bbref.com/m?p=XXregisterXXplayer.cgiQQid=nottin000jac

The Boston Red Sox have agreed to send:

C Sandy Leon BOS 5th $1.0

OAK gains $0.7 cap
BOS losses -$0.7 cap

I accept this. Just a simple, same position but minor leaguer for a big leaguer swap. I'm a Red Sox fan in real life and watching Sandy play this year, you could see he really figured it out at the plate. Adding some depth to my cathers was essential to me. Not sure how Vogt will do this year, I needed some insurance and Sandy gives me that. Two years of control and a solid hitter on a great offense and at the catcher position, is a just nice to have. Good dealing and good luck Boston!

Accept

Sandy Leon singles in the bottom of the 9th inning to help me win the Divsional Series last year,.....so how to I thank him?

By trading him before the start of free agency... haha.  Just not believing in the last year outburst. 

I'm still a hardcore Swihart believer.  With Benindenti taking left field, the catcher position is the only way of getting Swihart consistent at bats (possibly 1B but that could be the fat panda's new home). If he can stay healthy, I feel like the Red Sox can get past his marginal defensive skills for at least this year, especially if he starts to rake.  Nottingham is a pretty good prospect and now this move clears a little more money for me to add Steven Wright or Barnes back on the roster. Best of luck A's!!
