Very frustrating news about Jimenez. I'm not sure whether or not he's the piece that pushes them over the top in the AL East and maybe that's why AA wasn't able to sell it through to ownership. Either way, really poor message to be giving the fan base when Jimenez essentially signed for half of what he was forecasted at the beginning of the offseason.
Guess we can hope for Santana, but I might honestly prefer they save their bullets and give his spot to Hutchison/Stroman/Drabek to see what we've got. This team can still be reasonably competitive IMO.
