He couldn't reach the bag without colliding. The fielder was standing in front of the bag.
He was out 4 or 5 steps before he slid. Thus there was no need for him to take out the runner. If it was a bang bang play I would agree with you, but the force out happened a good 4 or 5 steps before the contact. He had time to avoid the fielder and instead chose to take him out. Since he was forced out prior to contact he, according to rule 8, is supposed to slide away from the bag to avoid contact.
At least that is the way the rule was explained at every rules clinic I've ever been to (I umpired for 15 years)
