Really good article and highlights the dysfunctional ownership and front office this team is constantly battling against.
That was a great article and aligns with my arguments I’ve been making on The Farm forum. If they really are holding him back to try and pump up trade value for Winker and Rosario then I’m flabbergasted. First, those guys cost nothing and aren’t even a real sunk cost if you had to DFA them today. Second, even if they perform as well as realistically possible, they won’t bring any real trade value, just a lottery prospect. Maybe that turns out to be another Lane Thomas, but highly unlikely. Candelario was waaay more valuable last year because he brings defensive value and a solid bat, and we didn’t exactly get much for him.
