One, he demanded the money and then just basically took the year off.
People are going to be upset.
But I think Bob touched on it a little bit more.
He's sort of the Corvette in the garage that we can't really afford right now.
I just think at that price range for the other needs we have and what we have behind them, not as good maybe, but still damn productive, I think we have to move on from Watt.
If we can get a first-round pick for him, all the better.
But I don't think we can.
I think he's worth it, but he did himself no favors last year with, frankly, his effort.
I mean, unless there's some injury.
Every game last year, where was he?
If he's a so-called one-trick pony... At $21 million a year, he should figure out a way above that problem.
And I think it's time to move on from that.
There you go.
Yeah, this is a guy who you go back to November.
There were talks he might get a QO.
He had a really solid year.
It wasn't like he went out there, struck out the world, all-star.
He started the year a little bit hurt, ended the year a little bit hurt.
But in between the two injuries, he pitched really, really well.
And this is a guy who spotty track record, but for the most part has a really good track record.
