Was that 20% of $1.5m?
sure, its trivial now, but for 2018, the tax goes up if you repeat crossing the threshold. If you want to add a closer for $15MM AAV and maybe sign JD Martinez at another $24MM AAV to replace Werth, then you start getting into more serious penalties. Then, after 2018, when the free agent market is rich and have to bid on Murphy / Harper / Gio replacements, you face even worse constraints. Exceeding now means you can't in 2018, as a practical matter. Wieters, in effect, is costing you next year's closer.
