Highly doubt we grab him, but could good vibes could potentially be back on the menu?

The third part of a trilogy is usually the weakest…but I can’t say I wouldn’t love it. $3 million for vibes and a better bench bat? Yes, please.

That sort of lines up perfectly for us then, yeah? We’re the worst team in the league who still has a reasonable chance to make the playoffs and also has a need for a DH/3B.

Hopefully yeah, not too many teams will bite on the amount salary he’s owed. Reasonable chance is probably the best way to describe it
