If the Angels re-sign Greinke, Haren will probably either be a FA or dangled by the Angels. His salary is high ($15), so if they're trying to trade him, it's going to diminish the return they receive.

It's not an unrealistic option, and he's been pretty solid outside of getting shelled while trying to pitch through an injury back in May/June. He's been much closer to his typical self in the second half (though his K rate is down a tick)

Chen's going to be part of the rotation next year, though. I think it's livable as long as he's managed better (and not asked to eat innings).
