Moderate risk.

The guy has only been a decent player for the past 2 seasons. One of them, he was busted for PED use. He was pretty bad during his seasons with the Yankees and was barely a replacement level guy.

But, if he can get you 800-850+ OPS in the OF, you pretty much break even. If he gets you anything more, you've won the deal.

I do like AA's style of going for broke here in the AL East. The BoSox are weaker than they have been for a while and the Yankees are very vulnerable. I still don't believe in Baltimore. They've got a real shot at winning the division with this lineup.
