Well, that’s when we got to find out about it.

Except that the herniated disc happened 4-5 months after he signed that deal.

You have no problem paying 13 million dollars for someone to play 80 games and hit 13 homeruns?

I have no problem with the Indians bringing back Hafner if the alternative is going to be Shelley Duncan as the normal DH. And looking at the guys on the free agent market, there’s no one that seems likely to produce anything that isn’t going to be priced beyond what the Indians would/should pay and there’s no one in the minor league system that looks to be worth playing there.

Done for the year? When did he start? Sizemore’s total body of work for the year was bending over to pick up one ground ball in spring training. How does a player that injured get a sufficient bill of health to get a $5M contract? You don’t have to be a surgeon to know that compensating for knee and groin injuries can injure your back. Nobody looked? Herniated discs show up quite nicely on an MRI. No hindsight was required.
