BASEBALL AMERICA Weighs in...

...on the Eduardo Perez for Asdrubal Cabrera trade at their Trade Central section HERE.

The main points they make have been made elsewhere, but in review:

Perez, 36, does one thing well: hit lefthanders. The son of Hall of Famer Tony Perez is hitting .330/.355/.693 with eight homers in 88 at-bats against southpaws this year, and has tagged them to the tune of .270/.366/.522 during his career.
...

Cabrera, 20, is one of the better defenders in the minor leagues. Signed out of Venezuela in 2002, he has played shortstop at Triple-A Tacoma this year and also has starred at second base in the past. His range, arm, hands and instincts are all plus tools...He could factor into Cleveland's second-base mix next year if Ronnie Belliard departs as a free agent.
