Dodgers sign Casey Blake for three years, $16.25MM with a $6MM 2012 club option ($1.25MM buyout, for a total guaranteed value of $17.5MM).
Analysis: Seidman.
I'm with Seidman in thinking this is a decent deal for LA. Unless you think he's a -10 defender (the advanced metrics have him around -5), or that he's going to decline unusually steeply, this seems like a nice contract, especially in 2009, when he'll only be receiving $5MM.
Since I don't have a whole lot else to say about this one, here are our ratings thus far:
No surprises here, I don't think. The difference between Affeldt and Renteria is as big as the gap between Renteria and Ibanez, which is kind of impressive.
How would you rate the Dogers' signing of Casey Blake?
