Y'all are really going to say that Weaver has no value in this environment? Dudes a former 1st rounder sho has one season in his development where he didn't pitch to that pedigree. Acting like he's nothing is just ignoring the value of pitching in this league.
If Weaver can give you as much as 175 league average innings, he's a $12 million asset. Eovaldi only managed about 120 and got a 4 year guarantee despite a career littered with injuries and ineffectiveness.

Good timing. Unfortunately for Shelby Miller, he wasn't eligible for FA after his one good season. I could see him getting something similar if his 2013 season was his 2018 season. Hard to tell how Weaver will really trend. He has the stuff to trend better and be a steal, but so did Miller.
