The SF Giants swung a trade with the Minnesota Twins on Thursday night to add depth in a much-needed area.

Outfielder LaMonte Wade Jr. was traded to the SF Giants in exchange for right-handed reliever Shaun Anderson. The move adds to a surplus of outfielders that San Francisco currently has on the 40-man roster, but it is one that makes a lot of sense.
