I would. That's not that bad of a contract. 22 million per. He only would need to contribute 15 WAR over the 5 years to make it work. Last year he contributed 5.1 and that's with a -1.1 defensive WAR rating.
Even if he slows down, he should hit that mark and the 22 million isn't a huge problem. If he moves to 1B, you can remove Smoak's 4 million and he'll be replaced by a league min guy in either Pompey or Alford.
Not a huge deal at that cost.
