All I'm saying is that there are better options out there, and for not very much more in terms of dollars.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Two great years, two average years, and one bad year. I just don't see how that adds up to sucky. If you don't like his OBP or his Ks, or his terrible defense, that's cool, I can get that. But to say that he's been sucky for most of his career is simply not correct.

Five years in the league, and non-tendered by Cincinnati. What don't they like?
I'd be interested in monthly breakdowns. Is he the type that piles on a big July, and trashes everything else?
Does it feel as though his track record is a tad light?
