I posted this in other thread but maybe worth posting here.....
So I don't like this move just like most of you on here. However, I'm going to take a different angle to this Adam Eaton Signing. So your choices right now for free agent right fielders were down to Brantley, Pederson, And a guy like Eaton. Brantley and Pederson or not going to take a one year deal. Truly you really shouldn't be giving either one of those guys a 3 to 4 year deal. Brantley maybe in severe decline after next year and Pederson has really done nothing to deserve a 3 to 4 year deal.
Maybe, the thought process here is sign somebody like eaten to a one year deal for cheap and then you go out next year and either through trade or free agent market sign somebody that's a long term solution.
Interested to get your thoughts on what I think maybe happening here.
