A tip of the cap to Wolters, Dahl, and González

It’s the business part of the baseball season with players being non-tendered and rosters changing. It has to be hard for teams to make these choices and it’s hard for fans who are seeing players that they’ve cheered for years be unceremoniously dropped. Even though that’s how things work, it’s worth pausing for a second to appreciate what Tony Wolters, David Dahl, and Chi Chi González, who were all non-tendered on Wednesday, have given the organization. Only time will tell if these were good business choices by GM Jeff Bridich or bad ones. If it was simply about saving money, this saved the organization between $5-6 million for a payroll that was $145 million in 2019.
