Ishii On The Way

The trigger has finally been pulled on the much talked about Jason Phillips for Kazuhisa Ishii deal. I said previously that I don’t think Ishii is a significant enough improvement over Matt Ginter to make this deal a good one but my feelings have changed ever so slightly. Though Ishii will be frustrating to watch and keep pitching coah Rick Peterson busy it’s not a bad deal when you can trade a backup catcher, likely to get most of his playing time in day games following night games, for a pitcher who will be out there every 5 days. I still stand by my point that it’s not a significant enough upgrade from Ginter but I appreciate Omar Minaya’s thought process here.
