Arizona Diamondbacks sign Jason Kubel to a Two-Year Deal

Jason Kubel and the Arizona Diamondbacks have agreed to a two-year $15 million deal reports Jon Heyman of CBS.

Jason Kubel is not a great player. He plays average defense. He has a little bit of power. Overall though he is not a stud player. In 99 games last season, he hit 12 homers. In 2008, Kubel hit 20 homers. In 2009, he hit his career-high of 28 homers. In 2010, he hit 21 homers. Kubel is a career .271 hitter that hit .300 in 2009.

The signing was a good move for the Diamondbacks who were desperately in need of more depth. In Arizona's hitter friendly park, Kubel could put up another 20+ homer season.
