So Long, Salty

ETA for these guys?

 

They are catching prospects, so.... never.

 

That's like asking what the ETA for Jim's next threesome is.

Right, never. It's been over 20 years since the last one. And I'm married now.

If I'd had a mouthful of a beverage just now, it'd be all over my living room things.

Salty was replacement level last year. They probably didn't expect him to be much better and didn't sink a whole lot of money or faith in him. He was a replacement level catcher with some MLB experience and theoretically the ability to provide a bit of pop from the bench. This wasn't a "good" signing because there was no real upside but they paid very little to merely plug a hole. Turns out he wasn't even good enough to be a plug. I don't think you can blame the front office for not anticipating the extent to which he bled value and I'll give them credit for bailing on him when he did.
