If signing a big bat is contingent on moving Kimbrel, then a bidding war could be counterproductive if it takes too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately, for some of the names that we want, their agent is a man who doesn't mind his clients waiting, even as far as into the season.

fathom Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I think we need Kenley to decide before Kimbrel gets moved, but of course it’s possible Kenley has to wait until Freeman picks a team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are trying to flip him for prospect capital to use for a starting pitcher, then by all means wait it out for the best offer. But if they just need that $16M freed up to sign Conforto, rip the bandaid off and get it done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is when guys sign really late, like after the season has already begun, they usually have crappy numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, I didn’t say they did good haha just that they can wait, likely into spring training games starting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 (edited) I wonder when he broke it. You have to wonder if not having access to team doctors affected his return timeline. Edited March 14, 2022 by chw42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure with the kind of money he's getting paid he didn't need to wait for the lockout to end before hiring a specialist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogan873 Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 What teams could actually be players for Kimbrel? Sounds like Philly is out. I've seen some speculation, but I don't know what is more or less realistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
