2007 Community Projections: Cliff Floyd

Given yesterday's announcement by Lou Piniella that Cliff Floyd won't play until at least 7-10 days into March, how much playing time will he actually get?
Will he start the year on the DL? Will he be healthy enough to hit and play half the time?
You decide. I'll have a game thread up later this morning.

OPENING DAY!@!!
first off, is it on tv or radio?
Today's game...
I haven't posted my Floyd projection yet -- I'm not sure where to take this. Anyone else?
Floyd
I think he will contribute and be valuable and worth the signing but not set the world on fire. Very valuable off the bench and some starts.
In my opinion the Cubs are better off with him than without him at worst he won't do anything for us.

Cliff Floyd should be a part-time DH in the AL. He's 34, over-weight, and but five months removed from surgery on his Achilles tendon. I'm rooting for a rebirth, as is Jim Hendry, obviously, but I think the Cubs would have been better off bringing Moises Alou back. Seriously.
In keeping with my projection about Murton, I see Floyd playing his way onto the bench where he'll be this season's Phil Nevin.

He will get the bulk of his playing time versus RHP and in the 2nd Half after Jones, Izturis, and Veal or Gallagher is traded to Baltimore in a blockbuster deal landing Tejada.
