I do this trade because it fits my franchise philosophy, of building from the bottom. But mainly because I have 6 starting pitchers heading into 2012 and not much in terms of at bats. I believe that Chris Davis is going to be a very serviceable major leaguer for a small window and that window is right here in the time line of his contract.
