Neale has been beaten up with a bad defense behind him, so best to move him now before he sees the wrong side of 30 and we have to either pay him or give him a fallback offer. I like Alvey's flexibility to play several different positions, and a couple younger prospects to take fliers on are probably worth more to us than a pick or two. Thanks Erick for the deal.
