He was 32 when he joined the Angels...Phils were in the mix for him too. All you need to know, and can look forward to Phillie's fans, is that every one of his incentives is personal as opposed to being team goals. Good for him and his agent. I guess fans in Philly hopes he moves away from being an overrated, underperforming jerk and can hit over .250 this year.
With today current going rates, yes.
His OBP makes up for the.249 (in 2017) and now in a lefties dream ballpark.

If he plays like he has in his career then he'll be worth it. If he plays like he did last year then he won't be. Should have a lot of prime left.
Although people will decide whether he was worth it or not based on like 100-200 postseason at-bats, as well as the results of other players which he has no control over. Good stuff.
