An argument for Mike Cameron

Food for thought:

http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/index.php/bay-vs-cameron

To sum up, if the Cubs could sign a player who is theoretically more valuable per season than Jason Bay and has been comparable in value over the last 7 seasons to David Ortiz or Aramis Ramirez AND plays center field, should they sign him?

I'm not sure I want the extra strikeouts in an already K heavy lineup. Honestly, I'm not sure I'd want Bay if we had a place to play him. But I'd probably take him for one or two years if Soriano weren't in his way in left. So would you take Cameron for a one year deal to fill the void in center? I know this idea has some support around here already. Does this reasoning change anyone elses' thinking?
