Xavier Nady

Cubbie fans, the Cubs have signed backup outfielder Xavier Nady to a one year contract worth $3.3 million with incentives of $2.05 million for games played.

While Nady missed all of 2009, he batted .305 with 37 doubles, 25 home runs and 97 RBIs in 148 games in 2008, posting a .357 on-base percentage and a .510 slugging percentage.  After the 2008 season, he had Tommy John surgery on his right elbow. 

Nady is expected to platoon some with Kosuke Fukudome in right field and backup Alfonso Soriano in left field.

What do you think of the Cubs' signing of Xavier Nady?  I think its a good signing.  Let me know what you think.
