No idea.
I know that before two down years with the O's none of these teams wanted him as a free agent. Makes me think they aren't going to be interested in year four of the deal.
If they say they are holding him back because of his defense when they are actually holding him back because they don't want him to become a super 2 that's lying.
I'm going with general wear. He's been trending down for years now. When the Giants didn't keep him it should have been a huge red flag for other teams.
He is getting looked at for back spasms.
I said they should cut him last year and turns out it would have cost the O's over 13M. I can't argue that between the Pandemic and looming labor issues it makes sense to cut him right now.
