Because although Fontenot took over as the everyday 2B, essentially Miles replaced DeRosa on the roster.

No, for the 1,000,000 time, no. It's Bradley, Fontenot, Miles > Edmonds, DeRosa, Fontenot. There was never, ever gonna be a roster with both DeRosa and Bradley on it, it was never an option.

I could have maybe agreed with that until I saw the way we pissed away money for nothing with guys like Gaudin and Marquis/Vizcaino. What was the actual savings in having Miles instead of DeRosa? $3 million or so?

DeRosa had one year left at $5M. We signed Miles for $5M over two seasons. So, we saved $2.5M.
