[Note] Rays Exercise 2014 Club Options
The Rays have exercised their club options over utilityman extraordinaire Ben
Zobrist and shortstop Yunel Escobar, tweets Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay
Times. As Topkin notes, the club's more difficult option decision comes due
tomorrow, when Tampa must act on David DeJesus.
Neither move comes as a surprise, given that the option amounts for Zobrist
and Escobar ($7.5MM and $5MM, respectively) are modest compared to their 2013
production. Zobrist slashed .275/.354/.402, a step back from his offensive
output over 2011-12. But with stellar defense and baserunning, he
nevertheless managed a third straight 5+ fWAR campaign and remains one of
baseball's best values and most adaptable players. Escobar put up an exactly
league-average wRC mark, but that will play at short, particularly when
combined with outstanding fielding. He figures also to provide surplus
production going forward after putting up a redemptive 3.9 fWAR in his first
year in Tampa.
The best news for the Rays is that the club has virtually identical club
options for this pair next year, as well. (Zobrist's jumps in value by $500k,
though his buyout also plummets.) Tampa will hope the decision is just as
easy next time around.
Zoby和Escobar的OP被撿毫無意外，再來就看明天FO怎麼處理DeJesus的OP...........
