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

you could write for the chronicle with that point of view

would be cheering from rooftops if stros made that big of a splash, but listing all reasons why not a good idea when they didnt

I wasn't that big on the move when it was going down yesterday.

I just view the guy as a luxury...not a necessity, and the truth is there are alot of necessities we need to address this offseason without forking over major cash for somebody we would like to have, but don't really need.
