Probably not, but Lin is still on the team.Can’t be good news for Swihart.
Something that wasn't a top 10 prospect is all we know atm.And we gave up what?

Santiago Espinal, ranked 15th by Soxprospects.comAnd we gave up what?
Yeah I assume Lin will be the corresponding move, it looks like X is fine so the need for him isn't very high.Probably not, but Lin is still on the team.
His salary is 6.25M so just over 3M left for this year. I can't imagine it's much cash.we got some cash. I guess to accommodate his salary with our limited wiggle room salary-wise?
Absolutely. Can spend July focusing on a reliever.Well that's a pretty damn good trade if you ask me.
23 year old guys in A ball rarely fill a need. Pearce will help.
An "A" ball player having a nice year .314. But the future will tell what we gave up. Right now who knows?And we gave up what?
Pearce vs Sabathia: 9-33(.273), 2 HR.Nice to have going into the MFY series. Curious if he starts against Sabathia tomorrow.
I'd be surprised if he gets here that soon. Not impossible but I'm going to guess Saturday at the earliest.Nice to have going into the MFY series. Curious if he starts against Sabathia tomorrow.
He's never repeated a league and has shown year over year growth so there's that going for him. This is the first year he's hit for any type of power though. As a 23 year old in Salem, that's not too surprising either though. He may make it as a UI.You wonder if Espinal was a guy who just blossomed at 23, or if Dombrowski is selling high on a guy having the best season he’ll ever have, still at A-ball.
This job was Sam Travis’ for the taking and he couldn’t take it.
Pearce could be a very good fit.
I would guess it goes 60% Moreland, 30% Bradley, 10% Beni against lefties.Are we looking at a straight platoon with Mitch now?
Shake nerves? What does that mean?Is Swihart going to stay on the team? Wouldn’t it be nice to keep Lin so he could shake nerves?
the Blue Jays had a day off today, returning from a west coast swing. Clearly the move was done during / just before the game. I could see a flight to NYY pretty easily...I'd be surprised if he gets here that soon. Not impossible but I'm going to guess Saturday at the earliest.
Yeah, I think July is spent finding the best lefty reliever Swihart can bring.Smells nice down here in the bottom of this dumpster. Add him and Phillips and that might be a more professional bench. Maybe package Swihart for a decent but cheap bullpen guy? Hope it works.
I'm guessing he means the rookie jitters or w/e you want to call it. Lin has 41 games under his belt though so those nerves should be gone.Shake nerves? What does that mean?
Yep no room for both of them.McAdam saying they're shopping Blake.
I hope you're right. Would love to see him tomorrow. But It seems like in this day and age guys are being given more time to report, so they can get their personal stuff in order. We'll see.the Blue Jays had a day off today, returning from a west coast swing. Clearly the move was done during / just before the game. I could see a flight to NYY pretty easily...
