To ensure that I didn't persuade anyone on the Swisher deal against their own wishes, I've added an array of links to let the readers come to their own conclusions:
- Scott Merkin of MLB.com writes about the impact of Swisher on the Sox, as well as what it took to bring him to the South Side. Not quite sure how KW can say Gio wouldn't factor into the Sox rotation until 2010 or 2011; I have an easy time seeing him having been a July call-up.
- Over at South Side Sox, The Cheat echoes my displeasure with the Swisher trade. I like how Kenny has violated The Cheat's 4 rules to the off-season plan. Notice, however, their optimism (even if forced), particularly with regard to Jack Egbert.
- At White Sox Pride, Scott Reifert, the team's VP of communications seems encouraged by the trade. But I suppose that's part of the job description...
When I've had more time (and a couple more drinks) to help deal with this blow, I'll attempt to present a more positive spin on the Swisher deal.
