Ugh just looked up and thought he was a year younger. Getting age 31 to 36 seasons if 5 year rumor is true.

yeah we overpaid. Any FA in this era you have to do that. But, it looks like you have to way over pay for trades nowadays too.
I'm sure that after 3 years or so the deal is going to look worse. Maybe move him to a corner spot? We freed up $30 million in payroll from last year. Dewitt has a ton of money. New cable contract is kicking in. They need to spend that money on the field.
Hate losing the draft pick but that's the price of improving your team. These incremental off seasons are starting to piss me off. Rather give up Dewitt's dead money and the pick than Reyes to improve the team.
