Late Tuesday night, The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal broke the news that the Minnesota Twins would put their longtime outfielder Eddie Rosario on outright waivers. By putting him on waivers, this gives teams the opportunity to claim Rosario as a straightforward salary dump. The Marlins should at least kick the tires on him.
He’s going to an expensive piece—projected for somewhere in the neighborhood of $10 million during his final season of arbitration eligibility, or if Rosario goes unclaimed, he could command a two-year deal in free agency at a lower average annual value.
