BTV hated Boyd, then liked him, and now back to the dumps.
I think the Tigers hold on to him, if all they can get is Franchy- who cleared waivers.
He should not ne non tendered- even at a $7M arb cost.
In hindsight, yes, but even, now, it's a close call.
I think I'd rather have had Maeda than Wong & Downs, but certainly that could prove to be the wrong answer.
(Nothing against Downs or Wong; I just like pitching more.)
I just pointed out that we pretty much know one pitcher we could have gotten, since he was traded for Graterol.
It's a close call, but at the time, I wanted Maeda and his very team-friendly contract.
I'd probably still say yes.
True, but two points to add:
1. Maeda pitched in relief quite a bit some of those years.
2. I might rather have Maeda at the low cost he signed for than Wong and Downs.
I'm not for signing Schwarber...
