reb, what is the free agency status these days?  Bryant seemed kinda ready, but Mike Olt got the start.  And the Cubs got an extra 2021 season for control.  Which got Canario and Killian out of that.

Mervis is obviously not a Bryant-esque prospect.  But, how long does a club need to hold a guy back in order to ensure an extra year of club control, under the current CBA?  Is that totally a non-factor these days, or might that be a small factor in the decision-making?
