Moving Kemp allows me to add a better bat onto the bench. I don't like knowing that I'm spending 13M on a guy to play in my minors. Gibson is a helluva contract but the 12M via Kemp and the 2M in cash negates it to abouta 3M lose.
Gibson get's thrust into the 2 spot allowing Barnese to slip to a more natural 3. Tobio will probably be sent to the BP b/c I want a lefty in martin in the lineup and 13M for a MR just seems dumb. Dye could possibly make it w/ a solid jump as a decent 3B and Witton has CF potential.
