Jose Constanza (OF) DFA by ATL


59th street

Recommended Posts

J. Constanza: Bats L, Throws L, can play CF or either corner. Has had very few MLB at bats but has had some success in limited playing time. He is 31.

I would think he is the kind of player that all teams have to make difficult roster decisions on that could find a home as a back up.

I wonder what our scouts think of him.? Anyone have insight on him as a possible back up OF who could play CF?

I feel like Shuck probably has a little upside, at least.

 

Besides, if Constanza is better, he's not better enough to make it worth the effort/cost of the transaction

Kinda like blowing the $4mm on Viciedo?

They're not going to have to pay him that. Arbitration salaries aren't guaranteed unless the player stays on the roster through, I believe, Spring Training.

 

I think he's going to cost them like $800k or something.
