Fits what they're looking for.

sheesh...is power valued this highly in the current state of the game?

This move most likely makes them a playoff team though.

Teams are locking up their young talent very early on, so you're seeing a lack of power on the open market.

I agree

Not a big fan of the signing, but they don't have much of a choice. The pitching is playoff ready and they need power in the order badly.

Good point...it certainly fits their needs, and no doubt they'd pay a premium for it, but this seems high in both years and dollars. Or the much more likely scenario that I just haven't adjusted my perception to the reality of situation (ie need for/lack of power available).

I actually thought he was going to get a little more.

Yeah, thats actually pretty cheap for the production they are expecting from him.

And the most obvious move of the offseason goes to...
Actually surprised it wasn't more money.
