Thats the same reason I doubt we'd get a guy like Manny (omg I would love that though!), because we wont give him

Howard brings a ton of good things to my ball team, but he needs to step it up now. Was as evident as ever last night when the Rays INTENTIONALLY WALKED Utley in front of Howard!!

That will be a long term positive. He actually brings very little outside of power against right handers. He is REALLY good at that and he may be a good guy but he really has very few other assets.
