    The walks... the HBPs... the errors... the excuses... He has no business in a big league roster. We won't miss thee.

    That is my eulogy.

    Super tough situation. Good guy, loyal teammate, long history, big contract….but just doesn’t have the ability any more. This is worse than the Jose Abreu situation. If they can somehow just limit him to low leverage innings for the rest of this season, they can let him come back next spring and if a miracle hasn’t happened, he can retire and get paid.

    He won't have an impact on our payroll limits, will he?

    His $18M salary will limit them next year.
