Free* draft pick!

I'm willing to trade my third round pick in next season's draft for a scrub, a half-star 28-year old middle reliever still toiling in AA. If the player I get in return has even the remotest chance to be of value one day, I'll even bump it to a 2nd round pick.

What's the catch, you ask? You have to take Sean Arant and his contract ($9.6m owed over the this season and next, along with a $7.3m mutual option for 2018) off my hands. While he was formerly a top-10 player in the league, arguably, his ratings and skills tanked last season, right after I signed him to that extension.

In the past, I would've just released him and swallowed the salary dump, but my finances aren't what they used to be, so I'm hoping to bribe a team to take him, hence this offer.

I'll also make a similar deal if someone would rather have Alan Callahan and his $12m owed for this season (he, too, has a mutual option for $13m after this year). He still has some talent and value left, so just watch out if he wins Outstanding Batter for you: He's due $15m in bonuses in that case.

If anyone has any other creative ways to remove either of those contracts from my roster, my inbox is open.
