The amount of money you'd save by replacing him with a minor leaguer is negligible at best.

Bollig's contract isn't a problem. Bollig isn't a problem. Fans can make him their whipping boy and try to run him out of town all they want I guess. Stajan you have a point about. Wideman by far has the worst contract on the team. Bollig's contract is extremely low in the grand scheme of things. I don't really get the hate.
The minor leaguer would be better unless that minor leaguer is Colton Orr.
