30+ dongs 8 years in a row.
I like it.
But he's 37 so anyone that didn't like Abreu...my condolences.
Strikes out a lot. That's how we like 'em I guess.
Even if he regresses some, there's no doubt we are like +5 in the win column minimum on just the DH position alone.
You can live with the K's from your power hitting 1B/DH. The knock against Abreu is that he never walks and has a low OBP. Encarnacion walks a lot.
The White Sox are also locked into Abreu for 50 million and 3 years. The commitment to Encarnacion is only 1 year for 12 million.
It's a very different situation.
