From that glut of available 1B, none would likely hit substantially more HR or 2B in the power department. None would likely play substantially better defense. Perhaps only Santana (3/60M) would possibly match his clubhouse presence. Importantly, young Devers, Bogaerts, Marco, Lin, Marrero as well as Pedroia, Betts, Vasquez and Leon and the entire pitching staff are already well used to him, enhancing Sox defense.

So solid Defense, 22-25HR, 30-35 Doubles, baseball savvy and leadership skills, platooning at 1B with Hanley, Travis or Brentz (or maybe Chavis down the road), all for $6.5M x 2 ??? Heck yes. I’m all in.
