More seriously, I am worried about the hip. So I am really glad that Ben held firm at two years. If Napoli gets a hip replacement and retires, it won't undermine the team's budget too badly. I also think there's a meaningful risk of skills decline, considering what his K-rate is now. But we're hedged with Carp, and it's not so long a deal. And his power gives some oomph to the lineup. The risk/reward proposition is pretty decent at this price.
And, of course, Nap is a super-likable guy, and like everyone else, it's great to see evidence that the players actually want to play in Boston. What a turnaround from the days of Valentine!
