He technically has hit free agency.

So if they wanted to, they could re-sign him, select his contract, and then you're not...

You don't have to follow those rules.

So again, it did not look good.

Austin Voth, command-wise, stuff-wise, it did not look good.

But this is not a good situation.

The Blue Jays are not where they want to be.

They don't have those good options.

So that is, technically speaking, one possibility.

And you see teams like Atlanta doing that with Carlos Carrasco.

That's why they do it.

It's because then you kind of circumvent that rule where a player has to be in the minors for X number of days.

Hopefully it's not literal paper, although I know for their actual contract, they sign it, but hopefully otherwise it's just, you know, a little PDF, a little email, DocuSign.

Let's go.

Not in the least.

I don't think anyone does.

I actually, John Schneider and Jeremy Reeser and Pete Walker have a really good idea.

You know, otherwise, I don't think a lot of people know.

Yeah, it is genuinely hard to make sense of.

I mean, I'm looking at a pitcher who's getting a ton of strikeouts.
