In other, more surprising news: Brett Cecil won't break camp with the Jays. Brad Mills is still in the running along with Matt Clement and Casey Janssen. As per The Last Bastian of Truth:
Matt Clement is behind Casey Janssen, Scott Richmond and Mills for one of the starting jobs, according to Ricciardi. He added that Janssen doesn't necessarily need to open in the Minors because he is slightly behind the rest of the pitchers. He's very much in the running for a spot.Interesting. Cecil's ceiling is higher thanks to his better stuff and abundant youth. Mills is much cheaper than Clement, something we shouldn't discount.

Does Clement's minor league deal specify a salary if he makes the major league team? Because if it doesn't then they'll both be $400k or $410k or whatever the major league minimum is now.
ReplyDeleteWell, if you can't get Rolen, might as well get Rocco, right?
ReplyDeleteClement's will be loaded with incentives, won't it? Mills is strict entry level. I'm assuming, but whatever.
ReplyDeletefuck rocco. and fuck the red sox too. (and the yankees and rays).
ReplyDeletecunts, all of them.
ReplyDeleteIt's only right that you got him, Lloyd. Even if he does now ply his trade for the douchiest franchise in pro sports.
ReplyDeleteRocco and I are above such petty distinctions like employer/employee
ReplyDeleteCot's doesn't list any incentives for Clement.
ReplyDeleteRight you are, but it doesn't list the loophole that let's him walk rather than report to the minors. And we know that's in there.
