The Angels non-tendering Patrick Sandoval feels like a huge gamble. Is this a smart cost-cutting move or a major blunder? Considering his potential and relatively affordable projected salary, are the Angels overlooking a valuable asset? Sandoval’s performance suggests he’s worth the investment, even with the Tommy John recovery period.
The Phillies' interest is intriguing. Could Sandoval be the Suárez replacement in Philadelphia? Or are they setting themselves up for a rotation surplus? Their current payroll situation seems tight, but that upcoming free agent class could create some interesting flexibility.
What kind of contract could Sandoval command? The Mahle comparison is interesting, but is it a perfect match? Sandoval’s later surgery date might affect his market value. Could we see a heavily backloaded deal, or will a team take a chance with a more balanced contract?
This situation really highlights the tough decisions teams face with injured players. Where is the line between fiscal responsibility and cutting bait too early? Is there a better way to handle these situations within the CBA? It definitely sparks a debate about player value, team strategy, and the long-term implications of injury.
