Ben Broussard
17 June 2008
ded OF prospect Shin-Soo Choo and a PTBNL (Shawn Nottingham, a minor-league pitcher) for platoon DH Ben Broussard and some cash. Choo is currently hitting .317/.420/.610 in limited action for the Indians, while Broussard was later swapped to the Rangers for second baseman Tug Hulett, a light-hitting guy who can draw walks and likely projects as a utiltyman at best. We lose Choo and Nottingham for 140 games of (approximately) .250/.300/.410 production from Broussard (at around $3M) and a backup to Jose Lopez. Wow.
