Granted, most of that has been in diamond where I was stuck for 4 seasons along with 1.5 seasons at perfect. He only had an OPS+ over 100 once for me, and this is with a HR factor of 1.1 for RHB also.
I think you can find a much better platoon for far less than 20K.

I ended up picking up a Mel Ott to platoon with him. Works out great for me as well since I can shift Ott to RF against lefties to platoon with Snider. Tempting to drop Arenado at some point too, but I have roster space for him and he makes a solid defensive sub/platoon guy.
