And neither of them bring the energy or grit that Ludwick did. There's a reason this team tanked almost immediately after Luddy was traded.

It was a horrible horrible trade.

But hey, we got the wonderful opportunity to give a dead average starter (who's best years came when Matt Lawton was still an All-Star) $8+ million/season.

AWESOME!!!
