Two, he has had some very bad injuries of late, the kind that sap speed and range. The kind that could seriously affect his defensive game, and even his swing. Three, he has had a substantial uptick in his K rate over the last two seasons. Four, he has the aforementioned alarming home/road splits. Five, he is owed 16, 17 and 20 million over the next three seasons. Basically, no. Agreed with all of this. If the Sox are going to take on that kind of salary, it would be for a middle of the order bat to hit behind Abreu and CarGo is not that bat.
