Another team not in win now mode grabs him and cameos him for 10-20 games, they lose nothing at all.

Would be a real shame to lose a player like that in a rebuild before you know what you have and run with such a veteran heavy top 9. Hopefully they can fit him in and bump somebody like Duehr or Rooney instead
Waiving Pelletier in favor of Kevin Rooney would be the worst move of Craig's short tenure.
