Agree with all the above(mostly). Now that he has recovered from his wrist injury, hopfully he can move back up towards his 2009 numbers.  How did he do with a bat in the minors, is he a weak hitter or potentially something more? Safeco might be a park that helps a gap hitter like this.  Cleto was highly thought of when he came over from the Mets but hasn't really moved upwards in the last 2 years.  He does throw hard but his control is a problem. Of course he still could figure it out, but this is one prospect who may just stay a prospect or someday make it as just a reliever, which is what many think he will be converted to. I say good trade, hopeful upside.
