The bottom line is that Hitchens is set to cost almost $11M against the cap next year and his dead cap hit drops from $21M this year to just $8M next year.
Bolton has the time to learn the defense before he takes over as the full time MLB next year.
It was a necessary move for the future because we can't afford to pay Hitchens that much and Bolton will likely be an upgrade for a lot less money.
