ROWWAAANNDDDDDD

Please explain. Rowand is thirty, Melky is 23. Melky has significantly more range. Rowands career OPS+ is 106, Melky 90, but in 2005-2006 Rowand averaged below 90. Looks to me like Melky is likely to be more valuable than Rowand going forward, so why sign another damonesque centerfielder to an expensive long term contract for his decline years?
