Title: Nelson Cruz signs with Mariners.
Post by: Chamillitary Click on December 01, 2014, 11:10:53 AM
Four years, $57 million.

I like it for the 2015 season, but it's a waste of money after that. Guy had his best season of his career at 34. I'd be impressed if he hit over .250, 33 homeruns this year. & those numbers go down considerably the three years following that.

But if off the slim chance he repeats his performance last season, great bat to hit behind Cano.

There were rumors about him coming here last year and I wasn't a fan for a number of reasons, but dude definitely went out and crushed last year. He's a horrible defender but from what I gather he'll mostly be playing DH here. Even if his stats decline quickly, just having another threat in that lineup is big for what's been a horrible offense for way too long. M's just locked up Seager for 7 years and now this. I told you figgas that there would be money to spend after Cano.

Says the guy who roots for a team that'll finish 2015 in (at best) fourth place in the AL East.

It's true. He should always maintain his power for your lineup for the four years. But I watched Curtis Granderson at the tail end of his Yankees run & let me tell you, it's not what you want lol. & Curtis had a great glove.
