Not trying to be "objectionable"...my opinion is just different than yours. The things that I am looking at (including your stats) tell me that he is not a top 25 OFer. His $2.3M pre arb. salary supports that as well as the fact that Seattle took what appears to be a #5 starter in trade for him.

There are 30 teams...in theory he would be the best OF on 5 teams if he was #25?

Devils advocate..when we traded for Fister, Seattle (karma ;-)). He was cheap and didn't give up much yet Fister is a fine pitcher. I'm not sure salary and what you were traded for is a good barometer on talent..

White Sox went nuts tonight, signed david robertson to an unbelievably stupid 4-yr/$46 million contract, then went and traded for Shark.

DD better get off his ass and fill our corner OF and BP holes.

The Chicago Cubs have won the Jon Lester sweepstakes, with the free-agent left-hander agreeing late Tuesday night to sign with the team.

The deal is for six years and $155 million, a source confirmed to ESPNChicago.com's Jesse Rogers. It includes a vesting option for a seventh year that could bring Lester's total take to $170 million, sources confirmed to ESPN.
