It's all about moving chess pieces around for the playoffs, no? And ultimately Gay is a really handy chess piece for 2 teams we're very likely to have to deal with at some point in the post-season. Yeah, there's a limited lane in which we might really be able to put him to good use, but for marginal cost, who cares? If you're churning the bottom 3-5 spots on the roster, 'need' doesn't really enter the equation. It's all about matchups and backups. And in that regard, Gay could end up quite useful. |

It's not a need move which is what makes it great, actually. It's just a perfect fit. Willie Gay could be installed in our defense and day 1 he knows all the assignments and is up and contributing right away. If he costs a 6th rounder or something and doesn't hurt us much on cap you pull the trigger.

Gay isn't bringing anything back. Maybe swap 7th picks to move back a few spots and that's all he will bring. In baseball terms basically "Future Considerations".
