I don't quite understand what this means, maybe it would help if we knew the question?
why didn't they try and extend him then? unless he just wants to play this out and retire - but that's not good for us
I think Kirk is having issues ramping up where he can handle major league pitching due to missing so much time, essentially this is his spring training except it's vs elite pitching
yea, could be a precursor to another move? plus they stock piled prospects over the years and now have one of the best farms IIRC - maybe they felt it was time to acquire players....
I think it's not position specific, on Outfield Throws from CF he is dead last in the league (I did not expect this)
