1. But he's not right now, he's playing well and you're suggesting signing a guy who's been terrible for a year to replace to maybe hope he can play well enough so we can trade him later. 2. What does Reed have to do with anything? 3. Once again, what do Phillips and Brinson have to do with anything? 4. Sure Santana has had trouble staying on the field but he's on the field now and so is Braun which leaves only CF open. That spot should be Broxton's. 5. A Gomez rebound gives us a lottery ticket like Barrios, maybe slightly better while putting another lottery ticket in Broxton on the bench or in the minors. It's a net zero gain if everything goes well. If Gomez continues to be terrible, we pissed away a few million and delayed the development of a young, athletic CF who is showing promise in the majors right now.
