Suarez let’s too good pitches go by then swings at a ball

Here is who is probably gone next year:

For sure gone:

Nobody

Possibly gone:

Walker - Will make a truckload of money

Joc Pederson - 14 million mutual option. The Dbacks will run to sign this. Will Joc?

Josh Bell - probably cheaper than Walker. If Joc opts out I think we resign him. Only Doctor Strange would see an outcome where we keep Bell, Pederson, and Walker

Kevin Newman - They will elevate one of their INF options rather than pay him a million. Still he is cheap which is why he isn't in the for sure gone.

Grichuk - 6 million mutual option. Do the Dbacks pay that for a lefty DH?

Merrill Kelly - Shocking right? Well see Jordan Montgomery. Both Kelly and Gallen are UFA in 2026. Kelly is 35 so you sell while there is value. I doubt Hazen has he stones to do it though.

Alek Thomas - The manager doesn't value the defense. Hazen said Thomas was the most called about player last year but he didn't want to give up on an elite defender on a rookie deal.

Lourdes Gurriel - One of Gurriel and Thomas is gone. There just isn't a spot for both. Gurriel's 13 million is a lot for a 2 WAR player


For Sure Not Gone:

Scott McGough. What imbecile gave this dude a 4 million mutual option? McGough will laugh to the bank while in Reno.

Jordan Montgomery. What imbecile gave this dude a 25 million mutual option?

Eugenio Suarez. What brilliant executive got this guy for a 15 million team option
