I guess the marginal win shares argument doesn't really apply unless you think that Starling would've been ready this year or next. You kinda need Dyson to start in RF already, don't you? You'd have been left with some pretty iffy options in the other corner had Gordon not returned.
It's just a long way of saying that the $8.4/share 'blanket' analysis is largely worthless. There's pretty much one situation where I think it makes sense - where a team is sitting right below the fringe of playoff caliber and have an organizational gap in the hole they're filling. At that point you could consider 'market' price a fair barometer. Otherwise there is just way too much stuff to consider.

I don't think you can expect 88 wins with a lineup of Escobar, Cain, Hosmer, Morales, Moose, Perez, Orlando, Infante, Dyson.
