he has that closed stance now and tries to pull the ball and just won’t adjust anything at all. I feel like he can be fixed because the bat speed still seems good. He just seems to be in the wrong stance and it’s hard for him to barrel it up. Its weird and frustrating. Maybe he just needs glasses. Maybe he just stinks now and there isn’t a reason.
Honestly impressive to rack up an entire negative WAR with that little of playing time. He’s giving Jose Abreu a run for suckage
It's a distinction without a difference, really, but the technical term is "non-tender" https://www.mlb.com/glossary/transactions/non-tendered
Framber has yet to have a clean inning today. I imagine he was hoping that he could mow down Boston and the Yankees this week so he could drum up some suitors and bids for his impeding free agency. Not looking great so far.
He was fortunate to get to play under a manager for a few years who knew how to press his buttons and get the most out of him. Otherwise, he might never have made it past year one.
