Cano is owed $24M this year AND next (Seattle pays $3.75M annually).  The Sox won't be picking up $27M of Cano's tab.  Just wait til he's released and get him for the pro-rated min if you actually want him. 

Getting rid of Keuchel and Harrison is $27 million so it evens out.

The Mets are paying him either way.  If the Sox feel like there is something there, they can offer to pick up a couple of million to jump ahead of anyone else who might feel the same.

Going to be some interesting decisions to make next week:

We should have Moncada and Kelly returning on Monday.  Hopefully AV on Thursday.  Cueto's opt out is the 15th.  He last pitched Wednesday, so would be on schedule to start Tuesday the 10th.  Next start would be the 15th, so probably won't be making that one in AAA.  

My guesses:

  • Moncada for Mendick
  • Kelly for Burr
  • AV for Burger
  • Cueto opts out and never makes it to Chicago unless he has a nice start next week and Dallas bombs out again this weekend

Looks like Moncada for Mendick and Kelly for Bummer to IL will be tomorrows moves. Will be interesting to see which of Burger or Sheets go for AV, assuming he’s ready when eligible. Both looked overmatched and could use a trip to Charlotte.

I’ll be shocked if Sheets goes before Burger.  I wouldn’t be surprised if Burger goes when Moncada is activated tomorrow.
