They paid 9 mil for KK in 2022, when we desperately needed an everyday CF, and it worked out spectacularly. Acquired Varsho shortly after.
After the 2023 season it was evident that the offense was a problem, KK was coming off a best-case-scenario season, and it was clear Varsho was an elite defender but definitely not great with the bat. It was not the right move to sign KK again, for more money, and hope that he put up similar numbers to 2023 in addition to Varsho bouncing back enough to fill a corner OF spot.
