Never was a walker so he pretty much has no value besides a bench bat.

So glad we got rid of him he couldn’t hit the Pacific Ocean if he was falling into it. The guy had one good year and frank wren wanted to lock him up for 3 years, see why wren is gone now

Agreed. These terrible extensions were bad, but Wren’s complete depletion and neglect of the farm system is the main reason why he was dismissed. Yes, the contracts he signed were bad (Upton, Johnson, Lowe, Kawakami, Uggla extension), but those were all somewhat manageable deals if we had had the farm depth to fill in the holes. Regardless, good luck in BOS, Frank. Hope you’re searching for a darn-good insurance plan for David Price.

Wren just needs someone else to handle contracts. He did very well on most trades. He didnt give up much for Uggla and no one could predict how far he would fall. Wouldnt have been as bad if he didnt sign him to an extension right away

If the Indians pick up a good portion of salary I imagine someone will give him a look. If not for that dollar amount he would be a typical Pirates pickup.
