Matthews with a lot of zeros
Angels sign Gary Matthews Jr.
5 years, $50 million and a partial no-trade clause for a 33 year old, lifetime .263 hitter with not so great power and few stolen bases.
Why not keep Figgins (at $2.25 million) in center and continue hunting for a 3rd baseman?
Did I mention it's a $50 million dollar deal? As in $50,000,000. And he'll be 38 when the contract ends?
Humm, not really the acquisition I was hoping for.
Although I think Speier may prove a nice addition.
