Of course, going out and getting a fifth outfielder will necessitate somebody else being waived, too. I'd have given him the chance, personally. I don't understand why Carrasco is still on the 40. He'd clear waivers, unless somebody does us a favor. If he opted for free agency, we'd still save some money if he spends any time on somebody else's major league roster. Herrera may not be anything special, but he's more valuable than Carrasco. I'd hate to think we'd just let these guys get claimed when there may be room for the both of them. Fernando still has options. And a 23 year old arthritic knee..why bother really?
