Ok, you're right, he isn't actually overpaid. After putting together back to back seasons of below average (for CF) hitting I don't know that he is violently underpaid either. I think his stat-line the last two seasons is also more likely to be what he does going forward because he seems to have been running hot in 04/05.

[censored], a Tyner/Monroe platoon would probably be significantly better offensively.

Crisp is one of the very best defensive outfielders in the game.

Violent might be an overstatement. Admittedly, all I did was take a look at his WARP1 over the last couple of years, and multiply by $2.5MM. His career OPS+ is 94 and EQA is .255, so I'd imagine he's somewhere around average for a CF. With his glove, I'd guess he's worth north of $10MM/yr, and he's only due $17.5MM (IIRC) over the next three. He's not as valuable in that regard as Melky Cabrera, but he is still a very valuable asset.
