The reason it doesn't make sense is because DeRosa got 600 PAs last year and Miles will probably only get 300 this year, if that. If Ramirez stays healthy and Fontenot keeps hitting he may end up with no more than Cedeno had last year.
His name may have replaced DeRosa's on the roster, but comparing their production makes zero sense.
I've made it very clear I thought the Dero deal was beyond moronic, I still think so and I also agreed it had nothing to do with money.
However, I think production wise, we are gonna probably end up the same, considering how many more ABs Fontenot and Hoffpauir will get this year.
