Chopps trade makes sense because it doesn't give up anything you wouldn't have next season, anyway.
Splitter can be signed for MUCH less than $15M per, so he should be the long term guy. Uwe states that Jefferson is a slight upgrade over Splitter. He certainly isn't a $10M/yr difference. |
Agreed. Just yesterday, Jose was insisting that Splitter walks if bids go to 8-10 Mil and now they'd be willing to take Jefferson for 15 mil? I don't think so.
