The Gary Matthews deal was just plain foolish. $50M and he will be 37 in the final year of the contract. He's never hit that well (OPS+ 109, 96, 119 in the last three years). Who wants a 37 yr old OF that won't be able to hit and makes $12M
It was just a bad year for teams looking for free agents this season. So many teams are going to regret the moves they made (Cubs especially)
