I agree the Jays had a run in them, but the Brewers had a full arsenal, as have the Braves and Astros to a point, and the others lost guys to injury. It's a great point, though.
Of course he wouldn't, LAD'd just move him for a taker. As for Matz, the longer the term doesn't exist in that scenario, the latter is guaranteed money. Depends on the player. But betting on health is risky, in your scenario. Many factors...
Anyone watch that Blues/Knights game last night? That was awesome hockey, just finished watching it. Like end to end craziness with the goaltenders shining, absolutely loved it, and I knew the score, lol.
