Simply put, Ludwick doesn't cost us more of the farm system.
I'd rather re-sign Ludwick too, provided the cost meets the parameters I listed in the OP. If he wants more, I'd let him walk and turn my attention to Upton.

I'd be willing to consider Dejesus. But he'd have to play CF. Not sure if he can cover it anymore. Walt has a history of trading with the Cubs lately.......might be able to trade some spare parts for Dejesus. I think Dejesus would bring more to the table consistently than Stubbs. Defense would be weaker, but I think we're also clearing room for Hamilton, hopefully in 2014.
Only way I'd want DeJesus is if he could play CF. Otherwise, forget it.
