My two cents..

I wish we had him a long time ago. For me he was one of the most if not 'the' most exciting centerfielders I ever saw. Pain in the butt on the basepaths too.
I am not sure if it makes sense to get him but if we ever did I would be glad. He is a class guy for sure but class does not put runs on the scoreboard.
He certainly is a player you want in the clubhouse. Tori Hunter is good for baseball.
