Even in a disappointing season, Diaz has a solid RH closer card. He looked bad this Spring and is on IL, but it doesnt seem to be serious. Hes only 28 and should have many productive years ahead. Sadly for him, hes not good enough for the Bullpen of Doom that Deadwood has assembled. I can keep him around for low leverage work, but hes hoping for a better opportunity elsewhere.
Although his value has dropped recently, I wont give him away. Return could includes cash, pick(s), prospect(s) or a more useful player. The latter might be a non-closing reliever with a better card or a good part-time OF/PH type. Who wants to free Alexis Diaz?
