February 3Feb 3 Might have enough of this archetype right now, but he plays all 3 OF spots and slashed .301/.368/.510 in AAA last season (only 153 ABs). 6-32 (1 HR, 2 2B, 5 BB/SO) in brief stint in the majors.

Showing up his catcher cost him millions. Teams are probably staying away from him just because of that one incident.

The tram makes the case. The arbiter ask questions independently if needed. Then they have to pick ine or the other. There is no "negotiating" or discussion really.

Kind of late in the game to be waiting on Valdez. Too many guys, not enough suitors with good offers for a lot of them. Just look at what Suarez had to take and he hit 49 bombs last year. Lots of lower contracts coming for teams with money left to spend.
