    2 yr deal. Rockies still lack pitching imo.

    Hes a nice pick up. Plus AZ rebuilding this year and SF looks to be starting over as well so its basically going to be Rockies and Dodgers with Padres about a year away from being a relative club. I dont think the season total ovr/und are out yet but Rockies should go over. Like the Dodgers tho to win the division again.

    Good signing

    Should have gone to AL. His glove is horrendous and will get worse.

    I heard teammates hate him wherever he goes. That's why the Mets didn't bring him back.

    He can't DH imo and even in AL he would still have to play a defensive position.

    He really looked like he lost a lot of power coming off that micro surgery. He can obviously still hit but I dont think hes going to be that 22,23, 25 homer guy even playing at coors.

    Its a good move - he had reconsctructive knee surgery and wasn't the same player last year, Rockies weakness was against right handed pitching, 2 years isn't too long either given his age.
