    I think that Joey Bats would fit perfectly into the White Sox near future. He wouldn’t have to play the field, Garcia could go, and Bautista would fill seats, something the White Sox need desperately

      Trade is laughable. Guy definitely is a rays fan. Give up drew smyly for darnaud, Conforto and mason williams is a dream.
