NYT: Glanville on Player's Perspective on Getting Traded

Interesting from a player's view...

Interesting. He's very smart and well-spoken (or at least well-written). He did, however, neglect to mention his aversion to drawing walks, which diminished his value to every team he played on.

I find the moving and packing parts of it interesting. I've always wondered how all that worked.
Maybe cause I absolutely loathe moving.

You might have a different opinion if you were on the road as much as Glanville...

Yeah, I hated moving 12 times during college years as well, but for a million bucks (Doug's salary at the time of the trade) I would move around and play for every team in the AL if I had too.
