I'm cool with that.
Bourjos for Freese makes a lot of sense for both sides and Bourjos could maybe give Jay the kick in the ass he needed when Rasmus was around to make him stay focused and at his best.
That's a win/win deal, IMO.
As for OT being the 4th OFer, Moe's smarter than that. You don't burn service time on a premier prospect so he can be a bench hitter, especially not if you already have a credible option in Jay and/or Robinson.
That's way way too much potential value you've exhausted just to have a guy take a dozen ABs in April. Besides, Taveras struggled a little in Memphis and had some attitude issues. I think they'll start him in AAA and have him earn his way up.
Strangely enough, I could almost see Piscotty making it as a bench hitter before Taveras. It's counter-intuitive, but that will sometimes happen with guys that are seen as good, but not exceptional organizational assets.
