Did this really happen? This move is a great move for the White Sox, With Jay Bruce playing center field now and doing well, Griffey became expendable. One surprising thing about this trade is that Griffey did not include the club option to be required to sign for next season. The Reds and Whitesox will split the amount to buy out the 2009 season (2million to each club). Griffey will probably play center field with Swisher and Konerko platooning at first base. Going to the Reds is Nick Masset and infielder Danny Richar.
Griffey is hitting .245 with 15 home runs for Cincinnati this season.
