I have been trying (with no luck) to deal Gray for over a week, and everyone I discussed the trade was too worried about his injury history and/or his 2016 performance, and with na rebuilding team, who know which of the diamonds in the rough will turn out to be a MLB worthy player. It is a risk on both owners parts.
The Indians are rebuilding, and therefore, I have the following players on the block:
CI Flaherty, Ryan $1.50 -2017 MI Hechevarria, Adeiny $4.00 -2020 OF Tomas, Yasmany $17.50 -2019 (might be willing to assume most the salary, depending on the return) RP Doolittle, Sean $2.00 -2018 (a little tougher to trade, but willing to discuss) Gee, Dillon $2.50 -2017 Gray, Sonny $5.50 -2021 SP Sanchez Anibal $7.50 -2017
With a hard cap, I really don't see the need for a luxury tax rule. I agree we need to support team rebuilding, because having gone through a rebuilding process, and not having the draft picks early enough to really support a rebuild, is a true pain, and detrimental to league stability.
