My grandsons loved him on the Nats.

They are now hoping he makes a return there, which is doubtful based on his recent performances.

Billy Hamilton is just better at being Adam Eaton than Adam Eaton is.

Eaton was brought in to be a 4th/5th outfielder and was pressed into playing regularly due to injuries. Then his own injuries screwed up the plan even more. Anybody with a brain larger than the size of a lima bean knew Eaton was not going to be a good everyday player.

He was $7 million. And there were better options.

$8M according to sportrac. Still no bargain though.

He was signed to be the starting right fielder. Simple Frank.

You're incorrect as per usual. Let's move on. Like Eaton will.

Eaton replaces Nomar Mazara, who struggled last season after being acquired from Texas. Eaton figures to play alongside Gold Glove center fielder Luis Robert, with slugger Eloy Jiménez in left and Adam Engel likely the fourth outfielder

It may have been though different if Engel didn't get hurt in spring training.

Eaton was signed to be a starter.

Quote:
After Nomar Mazara didn’t produce much in 2020, the White Sox were known to be looking at outfield help, with such names as Michael Brantley and Joc Pederson linked to the team. (USA Today’s Bob Nightengale also reported this morning that Eaton was “on their radar.”) With Eloy Jimenez in left field and Luis Robert in center, Eaton will be slated for right field, his regular position over the last three years in Washington. Adam Engel, coming off a strong 2020 season, now looks to be set for fourth outfielder duty, though the right-handed hitting Engel could spell the left-handed hitting Eaton when a southpaw is on the mound.

I think since they are paying one Cy Young candidate ten million dollars and the other Cy Young candidate three million that they can probably be alright with overpaying Adam Eaton.

Joc Pedersen was the bargain. $4.5 M this year.

Brantley got $16M per for two years.

Unlike you and ltg, at least I can admit when I was wrong.

That's got to be a huge slap in the face for Eaton. They were pulling guys off the street and sending first basemen to play the outfield for Christ's sake.

Sox offered Pederson early. He wanted to wait to see the market develop and they were only offering him a platoon with Engel.
