Surprised Avi had not already passed super 2 status.

Honestly, Putnam and Jennings can go. At least Avi has more potential.

I'd keep Putnam. He's pretty solid.

They're going to cost less than a million apiece. No reason to let them go. Who are you going to get to replace Putnam for that cost? Jennings was pretty damn good after his injury this year.

Yeah you definitely keep Putnam especially. If keep him over Avi at this point. Although Yeah you keep all 3.

I thought Dan Jennings was like 34

^ This. All 3 are tenders though.

At the All Star break, Jennings had an ERA of 7.83. He lowered that to 3.99 with a FIP of 3.47. He gave up 8 ER in the 2nd half of the season.

 

You definitely keep him.

He's 28. Had partial seasons in 2012 and 2013 and his first full in 2014.

If you take out his 6 ER in 0.2 innings against the Reds, his ERA for the rest of the season was 3.07. Definitely worth keeping around.

Yeah, he took one for the team that day, and it changed the look of his numbers for the entire season.

If you take out all the earned runs he gave up all season, his ERA is 0.00......not too shabby!!

It's not really cherry-picking if 1 out of 53 appearances makes your numbers look much worse than they really were, and his ERA and FIP even with that appearance weren't that bad anyway. It's not like I took out 10 appearances.

Especially in a situation where he was left out there on purpose.

You gotta keep my boy Zach.

Nah, just a name that sounds like it belongs to a 34 year old

I know you can do this on any pitcher but Jennings also came in on Opening Day, walked someone, intentionally walked Morales to get to Gordon and then he gets Gordon hit a weak grounder up the middle that Micah Johnson just stopped and watched go by him. Jennings should have gone 1/3 with no runs. Instead he went 0.0 with 3 runs. If Carlos Sanchez was playing second base that inning he would have an ERA of 3.49 instead of 3.99 on the year. Again, I am aware you can do this with any pitcher but I remember thinking, this sucks for Jennings when it happened.

 

Which matches his FIP almost exactly.

Sounds more like a 55 year old GM turned manager to me.
