http://baseball.realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/13538/20090211/abreu_signs_with_angels_for_$5m/ I've heard that there is $3 million worth of incentives.
It's $5Million with incentives which could take it to $8Million. Nice value signing by the Angels, but I'm trying to figure out what they plan to do with all their OFs on the roster. Ideally Vlade would agree to DH majority of the time, but he's resisted that in the past. I wonder if they can find a sucker to take Gary Matthews Jr.
I wonder how GMJ is going to play after his knee surgery. Vlad and Abreu will split time in RF, I think. Abreu should see majority of the time. I think I remember reading that Vladdy is fine with being more of a DH this year. His numbers were better last year when he DH'd. Hunter is a no brainer in CF. I feel bad for Juan Rivera. I think when he re-signed, he thought that he wouldn't have much competition for playing time. I wonder if they'll try Rivera @ 1B if Morales doesn't work out. Willits is another odd man out. That sucks, I love the kid. GMJ...He is good defensively, I wonder if he can be productive at the plate. I wonder if SD is still interested in him.
