Justin Morneau 2017 DH

Except he is at total cross purposes with the 2017 team at this point...helping to elevate the win total, taking at-bats from a Saladino or Coats or Garcia (well, that's a bit of a stretch) and very unlikely to be traded for a future asset this month because his pittance of a salary makes a waiver block highly probable.

 

Too bad it's not Avila doing this, because he is under control for 2017...but it's just the way this season has gone.

There were a ton of naysayers on the board when I first brought up Morneau as an option. Glad he is fulfilling my expectations and doing better than others thought he was capable.

 

I was a naysayer. I was wrong. Dude is gonna have an Edgar Martinez career I feel like now.

Wasn't Avila signed for a one year deal?
