I don't really like that so many reports have the team wanting to trade him. He's unlikely to return much value, and at this point the team has three options on the table if they keep him:
- He could accept the QO, which would be great.
- He could reject the QO and return compensation. This is likely more valuable than his trade return at this point.
- The two sides could work out a deal outside the parameters of the QO, either a 1-year deal or even a multi-year deal that's much cheaper than he would have signed 5 months ago.
I don't really understand the hurry to move him in the next two weeks.
I'd like to see you discuss a Vlad September promotion. Specifically, I'm interested in the rest of the panel telling you why your thoughts on this are dumn.
Littlemoon: You need to activate Frazier from the DL and make sure you have a roster spot open before I add Stroman.
J4L19: Who are you dropping to make room for Gore?
I thought he was more of an above average corner of type. Given what the bat is doing, he'd need to have like Inciarte/Pillar defense to get to 1.5 wins.
