Well, Fangraphs says it was a good signing. So there's that.

Hey Butch, baseball prospectus says the same thing. His 2.7 WARP1 would make him the 8th best player on the team this year as well. Better than ARam, theriot, baker, and 2/3rds of the team. You know who else it was much better than? Mark DeRosa's numbers with the Cardinals. I guess THEY aren't worth anything either, right?

Let's see. He was also 9th on the whole team according to Bill James Win Shares. So Bill James is a douche bag too I guess. I literally can't think of another evaluation to look at (yes his OPS sucked, but that doesn't take his fielding into account). Of the ones I can actually think of Perez was worth more than 1.75 a year.

So you can keep using my post as a punchline, but you are just being stubborn.
