With me, it is two questions: One is how much time is left on the contract? If it is a year or two and he is not causing a ruckus in the clubhouse, I will keep him around and maybe pinch hitter and spot start him, unless his fielding is awful. I generally try not to sign players to long term deals past the age of 35 so I do not run into the steep decline unless it is a young player due to injury. If they are a problem, I dump him, even if I have to pay the team some cash to off set it.
Second, how long has the player been with me? If I raised he from a rookie, sometimes it is hard to let go!
