Werth is FAR better than Rowand is and was. But with his age, it probably won't be worth it to overpay for him. Maybe if he were about 4-5 years younger.

Beltre will sign with the A's. BELEEED DAT
Is Adrian Beltre heading West? Beltre is set to cash in after taking a leading role in powering the Red Sox's lineup in 2010, having officially declined his $10 million player option to hit the open market on Wednesday.
The 31-year-old Beltre is also considered one of the game's best defensive third basemen. Boston would like to retain Beltre, but not at all costs. Beltre also has his family situated on the West Coast, and has said that will be a factor when considering his offseason options.
Eric Chavez is officially done with the A's after the A's not optioning him.

I think he may be worth it.
Werth is going to command big bucks, and i just dont think hes all that great a player. hes very good, but he will want to be paid like a "great" player.
hes never hit .300, never driven in 100 runs, and his power came magically after he played half his home games in a bandbox when he came to Philly. hes going to be 32 in May next season, and he will want alot of money for someone his age in a longterm deal.
were better off getting Crawford, who has tools much more suitable for our home park and style of play. imagine what Crawford could do with triples alley....
but enough of that. everyone knows the Yankees, Red Sox, Tigers, or Mets will fork over MEGA cash in the offseason for him. we cant afford him. the only thing we will be able to use is "hey Carl....were the WORLD CHAMPIONS....wanna join?"
its weird, because before no f/a wanted to come here because we couldnt outbid the east coast powerhouses, and our park knocks down homers. for the first time since 2003 players are going to say "hmm....WS champs out west...pitching to do it again....great fanbase....maybe ill check it out."

Especially if you are a line drive type of hitters. While our park may take a few homers from you, you may find your doubles become triples or line outs become singles. This is why I was a fan of the Freddy Sanchez trade. He fit our park quite well. Our park is the type of park where we can generate runs. Another reason why we need to find a bit more speed on the base pads.
