If it is any more than a couple million guarantee, it is pissing money away.

 

Well they threw away 3 million at Belisario last year lol sooooo I wouldn't be upset if it was that number.

Jesus DA, what did you want for LH in the bullpen?

This guy has been horrible for a while both in the bullpen and starting. He has one crazy good year. I read on here don't spend money on the bullpen. REGRESSION is almost guaranteed. It's worth a little money to see if he actually has become someone you can count on, but not a lot.

Let's make some guesses...

 

3 yrs/ 11.5.

 

Too low?

That'd be a great deal. Thinking something like 16 over three is more likely. Hope it is closer to 11.5 though. Love the deal. First of many moves I am sure.

As I just pointed out, the one good year also coincided with an increased usage of cutters (or sliders) and curveballs. Based on his pitch usage charts, he's not throwing anything straight anymore.
