He was running pregames during the series in Oakland. The thing is timing at the plate, he won't have any rehab games to take practice swings. But with 3 weeks left, he should have enough ABs to get back into it.
Not many starters out there can be had for 1 year at $13M. Though Clay is and always will be a coin flip, it's better gamble than Masterson/Dempster types. So pick up his contract, shop him around, or keep him.
This team is incredibly frustrating. I don't remember 2013 being this infuriating, despite this team having a lot more talents. The losses are piling up when they should be in the win columns.
