Should the Diamondbacks target OF Dexter Fowler in free agency?

One of the areas the Diamondbacks could look to improve is in the outfield, especially at the corners. One of the players on the free agent market is Dexter Fowler from the Chicago Cubs. Fowler was in a similar boat a year ago and nearly signed with the Baltimore Orioles before returning to Chicago and helping the Cubs win their first World Series since 1908. Fowler played in 125 games for the Cubs, posting a .276/.393/.447 slash that resulted in a 129 wRC+ that is an upgrade over Yasmany Tomás' 109 clip. It's no question that Fowler is a perceived upgrade over Tomas in left field both offensively and defensively and would fit in the lineup, the question becomes will the Diamondbacks target him in free agency?
