It actually does increase Lopez's value and decreases Figgins'.
One of the biggest reasons I was a big fan of the Figgins' deal was due to his improvement at 3B defensively the last couple seasons (he himself credits it to techinical improvement at the postion).
Now that Figgins one of those rare +15 run type elite defenders at 3B, Lopez is really going to have to be similarly good and/or Figgins is going to have to rock at 2B for the switch to even bring positive value.
I'm not a fan of the move, but I will be hoping that Figgins can transition his improvement at 3B over towards 2B.
