.569 Slugging is a career power spike for almost anybody....well, WAY above almost anybody's career power spike. Remember Figgy's career year for the Angels? We paid for that one, one that was a complete outlier.
Morales had 43 doubles that year, to go with the homers....can you see him legging out 43 doubles now?
Morales' year was an outlier, too. He may well hit .300 again. He won't slug like that again.
Rumor is that Detroit is interested in him (well, I read that yesterday, somewhere). For something useful, I would be sorely tempted.
He will cost us....what? $8M next year, maybe, in a QO. I would do it. I would certainly prefer him over Smoak. I'm not betting we go that way.
Interest my be hot right now. Take advantage of it...if it is, and it we aren't all in on him for next year.
