Carlos Gonzalez - Possible Markakis Replacement?

I'm not sure I'm sold on the idea, but where would you stand we didn't sign Markakis and traded low because of an 2014 injury for Carlos Gonzalez?

He is a career .294/.351/.520/.871 and about 20 SBs a year, 20-30 HRs, 29 years old. He is signed for 3 years 15m, 16m, 20m each of those years.

Include de Aza in the deal, and have outfield looking something like..

LF - Gonzalez

CF - Jones

RF - Pearce/Lough

I post this as a near pure hypothetical, as I think we're resigning Markakis.

I wonder if something like De Aza and Hunter would do it. It's academic I'm sure, since the O's are going to sign Markakis any day now. I would much rather do this, than pay Markakis 4 yrs/$48 mill.

De Aza and Hunter hahahah come on dude Carlos Gonzalez is a stud.

Coors Inflation - 29 for the 2015 season - $16.4 million, $17.4 million and $20.4 million.

2014 - .238 and played just 70 games

Doesn't take too many seasons like that for your "Stud" to become Crush Davis.
