Imagine that the $180 million soft cap they just proposed was accepted and the Yankees and Dodgers needed to cut payroll too…who would take Kimbrel on? You’d have to package him with someone to move that. Worst case scenario obviously but illustrative. If you don’t think you can trade him, do you pick up the option?

You have to make the call on the option 10 days after the World Series. A lockout could end 4 months later before it cost regular season games.

Letting him go for nothing would be a mistake. Pick up the option, hope you can trade him, if not you still have a solid albeit expensive 8th inning guy.

And that DK contract is going to be the anchor in the offseason, maybe we find someone for Kimbrel as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bad part is the 5 years of watching Heuer and Madrigal play for the Cubs. Hahn’s track record of trading for veterans is abysmal. He has made some of the worst value trades in MLB history. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last pitch you wanted to throw was a high fastball when you are trying to avoid a sacrifice fly. Kike is a good fastball hitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
