I guess the Braves don't care too much about Mark Kotsay: they just traded him (
officially) to the Sox for a minor league outfielder
who's playing (albeit playing pretty well) in low A for the Spinners. Kotsay, of course, is practically the definition of an average player this year (
101 OPS+), but then again, he's having a much better year this year than he did in his final season in Oakland.
