Yikes. That's a TON for a backup Catcher.
The cash helps cover Bello's 2028 ($6 MM) and 2029 ($9 MM) guarantees. Valera is a lotto ticket for the 2nd half of 2027.
🤦🏻♀️ What’s sa matter with u? 🤌
You want to keep Bello on the books?
I’m not giving away $15m and a prospect for a rental back up catcher just to move him off the books.
Besides, Bello is almost completely clean of the Cora juice & film he was covered in, he’s straightening himself out, little more than time and he’ll be a new pitcher and man. The Cora chemistry that has been lingering is finally dissipating from the clubhouse and players.
Only if you feel like Bello's contract isn't underwater.
