I've been wanting them to take a flier on him. A one year show-me contract. He's a Cy Young caliber guy when healthy.
1 year show-me contracts have worked recently, Wacha. Hopefully if that is the case, they actually hold onto him and not let him walk. Woulda been nice to have Wacha these past few years.

Wacha did work out. Kluber didn't, but it was easy to DFA him once they finally admitted it was a lost cause.

And I firmly believe Bieber is a much safer bet to bounce back to form after surgery than the 39 year old Kluber ever was.

His stuff was falling off a cliff which is why I was opposed to trading for him- but in this situation im all about taking a flier on him

Just rip the band-aid off and move.

I can't imagine that there isn't another city that would want a team.
There are a half dozen MLB expansion candidates, but none of them have an MLB-ready stadium for a team to move into.

Then again, the Rays are set to play this season at a Spring Training field, and the A's are playing at a minor league park in Sacramento.

Yeah. I was assuming that someone would pony up and help with a stadium in a new city.
