I don't think so, no. I can see why teams wouldn't want to give up anything significant for him, but a couple million for a year? Sure. The Cubs were in talks at one point for Villar, but went another direction. Obviously, something more than nothing was being asked for. What does "very available" even mean anyway? Free?
I could live with Alberto there if that's how it ends up. I would still bring Villar back for at least one year at 2-3M if he'd do it. If not, that's fine. Maybe Elias will swing a deal for Mancini/Givens after the season that includes a nice IF prospect which makes it moot.
