Here are some 05 salaries to mull over:
Baez - $3.75m
Lugo - $3.25m
Guzman $4.2m
This would seem to provide the opportunity to send Guzman plus some younger, cheaper players to TB in exchange for Baez and Lugo, and still keep the salaries relatively neutral.
yeah. I guess its a question of stepping back and trying to assess guzman's value without having watched him every AB of every game this season like I have.
Reality is he's at least an average SS still (plus arm, average range) and might go back to his .260 BA in Tropicana plus at least they got the DH so he's not quite as much of a detriment.
Nats are officially saying Lugo would be a backup to replace Spivey in that role and spell Guzman, but I ain't buying it :wink:
