I don't know while the White Sox gave up their top AA and top A pitching prospects along with a very good AAA bat I would have liked Swisher in Cleveland. I mean how long can we wait and you never know when a minor-league pitcher's arm might blow out on him and a phenom hitter in the minor league's does nothing when he reaches the majors. Shapiro needs to make a move for a corner outfielder. I mean how long can we wait for our younger players to come up and win it for us.
