Here is the deal on the trade: I needed to make room on the 25-man and Rajai Davis was the guy to go. His speed is nice and I used him in the OF when with an ailing Bautista but he was the most expendable. Bonifacio can also play CF and DeRosa can also play the corners. Plus, when Leonys Martin gets healthy, he will likely push for a roster spot.

I traded for Tyler Colvin because while he is struggling at the plate just as much as Davis, he has a couple of minor league options left while Davis doesn't. I expect Colvin will stay in AAA barring injuries (and even then, he will have to compete with the likes of Ryan Langerhans for that injury call-up).
