As far as what to do with him, I kept him on the roster until the 2020 season because it is not realistic to trade him, but when shopping him I was able to get back a list of a couple of shorter term contracts with slightly less money, but I didn't pull the trigger because I thought it was unrealistic. I ended up releasing him when he had one guaranteed year left on the contract. He's maybe a waste of a roster spot, but still a useful player.

I have trading set at hard or very hard (forgot exactly), I haven't received any interest yet. He is on the trading block, but attempting to feel things out I made an offer for Hammels with Texas who is acutally more of a contract per season. Offered to eat about 30% of Ellsbury's deal and Texas GM responded with they do not want to take on a veteran player with a vastly overpaid contract.
Have to play out more of the season as the deadline approaches to see if he has interest elsewhere. Otherwise I'll need to figure him into my plans for a couple of seasons.
