Belliard Trade Is Eyebrow Raising

I understood the past few trades by the Indians but this one makes no sense to me. You can live without Bob Wickman and Ben Broussard but why would trade Ronnie Belliard for a ham sandwich. The Indians probably will use Boone at 2nd and Marte and 3base but the Indians got a nothing for Belliard. He wasn't making all that much and to dump a contract like that is just being cheap. Shapiro probably begged and pleaded teams to take Boone off his hands and had no takers but if that was the case they could of just released him. I am of the opinion that you don't get any better by losing. By trading Belliard the Indians got a lot worse very fast.
