This goes back to the question I just recently asked, but if pure free agents are this cheap, you have to think that this is going to hit trade values for similar players on the trade market. If you can get Markakis for $6 million dollars, or trade for Pederson with an eight figure annual hit, that has to hit his trade value.
If nothing else, it makes me thankful that RH and the Sox decided to start their rebuild a couple of years back and not trying to sell right now. An argument could well be made that the Quintana trade was the absolute top of the mountain in trade value with what has happened since then.
