He was serviceable last year (.249 BA, 17 HR, .821 OPS in 113 games) and had a really nice year as recently as 2005 (.304 BA, 30 HR, 1.002 OPS), so as a backup 1B, he's fine. He plays a pretty solid 1B, if I remember correctly, too. I bet we'd like to have a switch hitting power bat off the bench, yes?
