The recent introduction of the DH has created new opportunities for aging batters whose defense has suffered. For those teams in need of a DH, I would like to offer future Hall of Famer John Grondin for trade.
He's actually not going to be my primary DH this season (Tomas Kalakay will have that honor), and I planned to have him share 1B with a prospect. But, if someone wants to make him their DH, I would gladly trade him.
This is the final year of his contract, where he's due to earn $20,410,000, and he has asked for $8 million a year for an extension. Let's say he's worth $5m this year. So, I'll include $15m cash (or take on that much in a salary dump) in order to get a decent return for him.
The first home run he hits next season will be his 500th, and he's only 10 RBI from a career 1,500. Wouldn't it be great to have him accomplish that in your team's uniform?
