Don’t think it’s dumb at all. Stash him in the minors until he opts out in May. One never knows…

I would like to see him stay he does have some potential. like say one of the veteran pitchers get hurt and they want a veteran up they have him and gurka to call on as Lefty’s

A player cannot negotiate with another team while under contract. He probably had an opt out clause so that he could try and get himself a big league job, with the stipulation that if he couldn’t find one, he’d come back to NY under the same contract
