No chance he declines 23 million for one year, imo.
I think they can get a 45+ player back. I'd partner him with another minor league player to get more..... But I'm no GM.
They'd have to offer him five years, fifteen per....
Yes, go to three catchers. Put Buxton on the IL, option Fedko, call up Roden. Jeffers on the team until traded, because they aren't paying him.
With a guy that probably should have been on the injured list? I think that context is important.
Nice win! I'm hoping for two roster moves later today....
Back for 1 game.....good thing they didn't put him on IL for the other 4 games he's missed so far.....
Put him on the IL. Call up Roden (I suspect it will be Jeffers, delaying the need to demote/trade/whatever someone).
I'm a big fan, but I'm not sure saying he's better than a bunch of guys not playing well is all that convincing...
I agree with the post above, playing first hurts his fwar for sure, and we should think about that ...
This organization is obsessed with bad veterans and low floors. Given that this is across multiple GMs, not just the last two, I'm thinking it's ownership.
