who did the cubs trade dj lemahieu for
DJ LeMahieu On December 8, 2011, the Cubs traded LeMahieu and Tyler Colvin to the Colorado Rockies for Casey Weathers and Ian Stewart.[7] On May 23, 2012, he was called up to the major league to replace injured Jonathan Herrera as a utility infielder.
Jackie Robinson In 1956, Robinson had 61 runs scored, a .275 batting average, and 12 steals.[152] By then, he had begun to exhibit the effects of diabetes, and to lose interest in the prospect of playing or managing professional baseball.[180] After the season, Robinson was traded by the Dodgers to the arch-rival New York Giants for Dick Littlefield and $35,000 cash (equal to $315,043 today). The trade, however, was never completed; unbeknownst to the Dodgers, Robinson had already agreed with the president of Chock full o'Nuts to quit baseball and become an executive with the company.[187] Since Robinson had sold exclusive rights to any retirement story to Look magazine two years previously,[187] his retirement decision was revealed through the magazine, instead of through the Dodgers organization.[188]
