I am glad they didn't spend $70M on Abreau. I think getting him at $55 would have been a good deal but this guy does carry some risk. he has enormous power but not sure how good his plate discipline will be and defensively he is a big Q mark, even at 1b.
The White Sox may have gotten another masher here, but they also may have gotten a Chris Carter who is likely older than they think

I was all for adding a FA or two to the outfield, but I'm glad we didn't spend all that money.
We've got guys who are going to help the club eventually. This team needs relief pitching more than anything else, so I'm glad we saved that money so we could use it on 3 or 4 decent relievers.
