Yeah I think he's more valuable to us playing 1B next year for $10 million than in a deal. We have so many gaps to fill just having a good clubhouse guy and productive hitter at 1B is so helpful.
I think so too. Ideally if you could get a team that is close to .500 mixing in some guys like Bell with young guys, that puts us in a lot better position for 2023 vs going all prospects and losing 100 games. The former go a long ways to making a guy like Soto happier than suffering through 100 loss season with no light at the end of the tunnel.
