Ben Broussard

CLEVELAND -- First baseman Ben Broussard avoided salary arbitration on Wednesday by agreeing to terms on a one-year, $2.5 million contract with the Cleveland Indians.
Broussard is expected to platoon this season with recently signed free agent Eduardo Perez. Last year, Broussard made $365,000 while batting .255 with a career-high 19 homers and 68 RBI in 142 games.

He had initially asked for $2.6 million in arbitration and had been offered $2.2 million

Re: Ben Broussard
I have zero concerns about Broussard/Perez at 1B for a combined $4.3 million (or whatever it ends up being).

Ugh.  Well, I guess that Broussard will be able to afford PRO TOOLS now.

Re: Ben Broussard
I have nothing BUT concerns over Broussard specifically and 1B in general. These are mostly from watching him play in September and October last year.
