In all honesty, this move surprised me.
Not that Shaun was any big deal, but for quite a while, he was projected to be a back of the rotation guy, or a reliever.
That he had one year, an abbreviated year at that, in which he struggled with command, IMHO, was not a valid reason to move him.
I believed then, and I believe now, that he has decent upside as a back end reliever.
Don't get me wrong, I have no problem trading him... but for LaMonte Wade?
A guy with zero power, but a great OBP with what appears to be average, or above average speed.
Not that Anderson was going to land us anything huge...But with his stuff, I believe we could have gotten more, or at least some one better.
I mean, other than OBP, this guy is Duggar from what I can find out.
