Not the market he thought it would be for sure. 2 years 20 million

He could have helped make Justin Upton a superstar, by batting behind him.

That's disappointing.

Sure, but only once every other week or so, since Melvin would most likely continue to shuffle his lineup every other game.

Well I guess the positives are that its only 2 years and no one except maybe LA would have been willing to give him that kind of money but they are holding out for Manny. He is lucky we did not offer him arbitration, otherwise he'd still be sitting at home like Hudson waiting for a decent offer.

I do not forsee the D'Backs making a trade for a slugger to replace him, they will probably wait until the deadline to see who is available, pay less than they would right now and hopefully that will put them over the hump for the playoffs.

Thank goodness we didnt offer him Arbitration. He would have taken it @ 13 mil

He probably wouldn't have because no one knew the market would be this bad. Hell Hudson declined and would have gotten more than what he will get in his next deal.

I didn't want Dunn back. His defense is attrocious, and you can only have so many defensive liabilities on a team and Reynolds and Upton meet our quota.
