I mentioned this about a week ago on another message board and think it is a good idea. We need a veteran to back up the middle infield and it looks Graffanino wants to play for a team where he can have a chance at starting and that is not going to happen here.
If Craig comes back things are going to be different than the first time he was here, where I admit I wasn't happy to see him in the line-up each day when he wasn't hitting and at the time taking away playing time from a young Bill Hall. But a back-up role I can live with. He can still find a way to get on base and is still capable of producing a .330 to .350 OBP which isn't bad.
