He may not be among the best hitting 1B in the league, but he's a GG'er and an every day player for years. Prior to this season, his previous 3 seasons he had an OBP of .400 - .361 - .393. If the Cubs don't give him at least 2 years (he'd be 36 at the end), someone else will.
Plus, our best 1B are pretty modest prospects in AA.
Free Agent 1B this off season (that are worth while): Dunn, Konerko & Pujols.
Free Agent 1B next off season: Fielder, Gonzalez, Helton & Howard<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Didn't Howard just sign some huge extension? If you're referring to Ron Howard, then I apologize. Cause Opie can still rake.

I had that in my head also, but I was just pulling off Cots.
