Written into the 26-year-old's contract extension is a clause that if spends over 120 days on the injured list with a left arm injury, would trigger a $15 million club option for 2032, essentially turning his six-year deal into a seven-year deal.

Probably covers everything from shoulder/rotator cuff all the way through elbow/forearm.

But he is currently out because of back issues

Andrew Vaughn has a .351 BA and a 171 wRC+. Granted they are hiding him against some tough RHP but goodness.

Sosa starting a rehab assignment for Toronto, though I'm not sure they have a roster spot waiting for him.

Crochet had his shoulder looked at again and it's "improving" but not to the point where he can start throwing. He does have an "arm injury" clause in his contract, wonder if that includes the shoulder or just the elbow/forearm.

He "looked normal". Every ball that came in low and outside was a swing and a miss 😜

He joins Liam Hendriks, Aaron Bummer, Doug Nikhazy, Vince Velasquez as ex-Sox arms in the Cubs org

Kelenic was waived. He hit 125 with 5 K in 10 PA for Texas. Might be time to learn Japanese. I have regrets in life but he was offered a 60 million dollar extension that he turned down before he fizzled. That has to eat him inside, man.
