Even if it's not guaranteed, the point is, it's not necessary.
First off, it's a dick move to Tepera, being told you made the team, then the night before you get shipped out.
Then how about the message it sends to Venditte? If they only signed Morales to hold the bag until Loup comes back, why didn't we just save the $$$ and use Venditte to begin with instead of Morales.
If the contract becomes guaranteed when he makes the team, then it's an incredibly stupid waste of $2 million.
If it's not guaranteed, and he's only going to make pro-rated part of $2 million for 2 weeks then get cut, then it's bad optics, and Morales will be pissed.
All this for Franklin f***in Morales?
This smells like the Bruce trade. A head scratching potential waste of money for no reason whatsoever.
Why again does everyone love Shapiro/Atkins?
