I would have to imagine if you are dumping outfielders for ****ing Homer Bailey and no legitimate prospects then is has to be for Harper. Took on money and the best prospect coming back doesnt have a single plus grade on any tool. Thats a yikes if Harper signs somewhere else.

EDIT: Actually the money is just about equal assuming Puig is going to get $9M he projects to get in arb.
To your edit - I read that the way the cap works has that being a net savings to the Dodgers of around $25 million total. I don't know how Craig Edwards got there, but that's what he's saying.

But again - that brings me around to my original point - why not just non-tender the both of them if all you can do with them is include them in a deal allowing you to offload Kemp for Bailey?
