That's pretty fair.
My only point was that Hendry has given out 2+ year deals to a lot of mediocre players. I don't hate Grabow, and I actually DO want him back, but if keeping him, paying guys like Heilman and Miles to suck while also eating a decent chunk of Bradley's salary end up handcuffing us in upgrading other areas, I'll be pissed. Other than that, I'm fine with keeping Grabow at the right price.
