25 CF Bill O'Toole
49 G, 6 2B, 2 3B, 8 RBI, .324/.350/.414, +0.5 WAR
The Boise Spuds front office announced today that will bring 25yo CF Bill O'Toole over from Atlantic City in exchange for rookie 2B Jafar Seif al Din. This trade allows O'Toole to take over the role of uber-utility man from 35yo Arturo Ahumade who has better infield abilities but is losing form. O'Toole puts a lock on the entire OF and may earn some starts here and there. Mostly, he provides rest and insurance for All-Star 21yo CF Lou Bayou. Rookie 2B Graham McFayden comes on from AAA Salt Lake City to cover the infield.
