If Holmes works like a lot here think, then the mob would have been out to bench KP and you would have had to trade him for a couple of 2-ways.No question in my mind the same trade they got for KP would have been there for KP throughout most of the season, and less playing time for KP possibly means less injuries, although you won’t see me trying to stick around for that argument!
What if before we give him less minutes and at a point where he wasn’t injured, we do that trade and the team now has a more integrated SD and DB to go into the stretch run? On top of that, we have Holmes from the beginning of the season rearing to be unleashed!
