Most likely scenario is this goes into the offseason, yeah.
His value will be diminished somewhat by the lack of a post-season run, but I really think most teams looking to acquire him are doing so with an eye on the next decade+ rather than just his team control years.
It does seem that the Lerners would be wise to let the owernship situation play it. It could potentially cost them tens of millions (hundreds?) if they play it wrong.
