If you want to say signing Frenchy was dumb, everyone agrees. But Myers wasn't playing this year with Gordon and Cain clear starters and $7m owed on French. Did you think we'd just park 7m on the bench?
It turns out that we have but French was going to get the opportunity to bounce back and see if he could hit like 2011. If you argue that the pitchers we got would've been out-done by having Myers play all year then you'd have to prove that. I highly doubt it's true.
