That was helpful. Thank you.

"Dustin Pedroia doesn't have the strength or bat speed to hit major-league pitching consistently, and he has no power......He probably has a future as a backup infielder if he can stop rolling over to third base and shortstop." Keith Law, 2006

Suppan had a long track record of being almost exactly league average. Betencourt has a long track record of barely being replacement level. There's a huge difference there.
There's a huge difference in pay too.

And I would say about 50% of Brewer nation thought he was worth it at the time of the signing. I would suspect that they were less apt to complain about him later in his Brewer career.
