Trade
Matt Kemp for Dayan Viciedo, Conor Gillaspie and John Danks
The Sox acquire a legit 5 tool player with something to prove and the Dodgers receive a solid #5, .500 pitcher, a nice contact hitter off the bench, and a young power hitter off the bench who doesn’t threaten some of the fragile egos in the current outfield mix.
Line-up
1. Adam Eaton-LF
2. Pablo Sandoval-3B
3. Jose Abreu-1B
4. Matt Kemp-CF
5. Avisail Garcia-RF
6. Kendrys Morales-DH
7. Alexei Ramirez-SS
8. Tyler Flowers-C
9. Carlos Sanchez-2B
