More likely to be DFAed, on the basis that what team would want a mediocre fielding first baseman who strikes out in close to half of his at-bats.  And if you could, you'd probably be lucky to get a bag of used balls for him.

On the flip side, none of this may happen, because of the amount of money they're paying him.

Seattle gave up their top prospect and three more, the top bring one of the top twenty overall. So, the twins would have to give up Lewis, and three more of their top fifteen to match that. You'd be good with that?

You can see it coming.  He goes to new team.  New team tweaks his swing.  New Sano turns into what Sano was heralded to be when coming up with Twins.

I said a month ago this team desperately needed another starter. I'd hoped to be proven wrong by now.... Alas, it looks even more that way than I thought.
