My last day of classes is tomorrow lol. Although I only have one, in the morning. I'll be watching baseball and drinking all afternoon
Is Guelph unique in having exams this week?
Kimbrel projects for 2.3 WAR by Fangraphs depth charts, which eclipses demoting those guys. Shawn Kelley projected better as a set-up guy too. It's still not a huge upgrade though, I agree with your main point.
He'd project as our best righty reliever. Hopefully AA comes through with his "we'll look around at what's available at the end of Spring Training" shtick.
Because baseball is an entertainment enterprise and letting Quentin take some at bats away from Johnny Gomes and Todd Cunningham won't affect them long-term.
Quentin projects as solidly above replacement. Should every non-contender just DFA all their players who project between 0.5 and 1 WAR? That they happened to acquire Quentin in trade today doesn't change his value as an asset.
