First experiment with clickbait: success. Actually, I can do 639 words better. If I had only two words to summarize the trade for Shane Victorino, they would be these: "Shane" and "Victorino." That, in essence, is all there is to it.
Substitute those words for another pair—say, "Conor" and "Gillaspie"—and you're talking about a minor deal. After suffering a routine injury at an already weak position, a first-place team makes an unremarkable trade for an unremarkable player, who should do better than a fresh cadaver, or so one would hope. Experience suggests that said player will probably get DFA'd by September, or maybe stick around the expanded roster long enough to ride the bench into the playoffs.
