Ibanez to Phillies

[kbwsb]

For our new lefty RFer, here's a big reason why I'd like Dunn: durability. If he signs a 3-year deal, he'll likely miss less than 10-12 games TOTAL during the course of the contract. He's averaged 158 a year over past 5 years.
Abreu is 36. Bradley is truly a risk...the dude misses half-seasons at the drop of a hat.

That said, if we sign Bradley, I won't weep. I like him a lot, and perhaps he'll put together that career-year that we all know he's capable of, where he could easily win an MVP.

Abreu would be a mistake, IMO. He'll likely be just as expensive as Dunn, and at this stage of his career, he's simply not as good a player, and sinking fast. His main strength is OBP, which the majority of you apparently think isn't that big of a deal anyway.
Teahen or Garrett Anderson would be a Jeromy Burnitz-like signing.

I think Jimbo will sign Milton Bradley. It helps a lot that Lou likes him too. And Bradley <i>wants</i> to be a Cub.
I'm looking forward to the Bradley era...definitely won't be boring. I fear that we'll be watching him in the same way we watch Harden...when he plays, he'll kick ass.
