If you could dump him, you do so to get out of paying the rest of his contract, and worry about who is going to take the lineup spot later. I'd happily play Dalbec every day if that's what it meant.Yeah, people seem to want that slot for Raffy and I get that, but then what? We gonna trot Dalbec out there every day? As you said, no one is being block by Yoshida being on the roster.
But you can't dump him. I'm not sure they could find someone to pay even 25% of his contract. So yeah, you gotta play him.
