Stop the Iglesias Second-Guessing!
Yes, Jose Iglesias is a gifted fielder. He is also a 1 for 4, .250 hitter at best, on a team that has more than enough offense to accommodate his slight bat. 100 out of 100 times I would make the same trade of Iglesias for Jake Peavy. Stop the reporters who poo-poo this trade & say Iglesias is & was the best thing in a Red Sox uniform since popcorn & ice cream. The trade is a win-win for both teams. Iglesias gets to play short everyday for the Tigers & throw in a hit whenever he can - no pressure on him to produce offensively. Peavy gets to take Buchholz' spot in the rotation to bolster the Red Sox starting staff for a playoff run. He is also going deep into games & saving the bullpen. So stop the nonsense!
