We are NOT picking up his 18 million dollar option for next year. There is a 2 million buyout. If he's going to keep playing, he's going to DH in the AL.
He's even said he knows the Nats are almost certainly not picking up that option. But he's still good when healthy. So rip up that contract and give him something like 28-30 million over the next 3 years. Then transition him to some type of front office role.
