Cuddyer would have been a good fit for the Giants. The article makes it seem like the Rox overpaid, but for the price of an Aubrey Huff you get a more versatile RH power bat. A swing and a miss.
Michael Cuddyer, Colorado Rockies reach multiyear agreement - ESPN:
"The Colorado Rockies have reached a three-year agreement with free-agent outfielder Michael Cuddyer.
The contract is reportedly worth about $30 million.
Michael Cuddyer is a nice player, can play right field or first base or second or third in a pinch, has some power and is apparently a great guy. But he's hardly the fix the Rockies need, Cuddyer, 32, is a career .272 hitter in 11 seasons with the Minnesota Twins. He hit .284 with 20 homers in 2011.
He brings a big bat and a veteran presence to Colorado, where general manager Dan O'Dowd has talked about changing the clubhouse culture after a disappointing 2011 season."
