I'm going to do something new this offseason with free agents, so I figured I'd rack up some easy PP as a way to research the market. It should help you guys to with some questions I'll later be asking you. We've been wondering how good OOTP is at players judging the market when deciding on player opt outs and options. It does feel like a mixed bag so far. So, before we get to the wonderful day where we all figure out who is screwed and who is not so much, let's see what we think. Remember, I'm asking you, SHOULD this player opt out. Not whether you expect them to do so. With each player I ask about, I'll try to give a little background. Feel free to discuss.
Juan Sweetworld
Juan Sweetworld just came off the worst year of his career, a .241/.284/.411 dud worth 0.9 WAR in his age 28 season. Before that he posted 3.8 and 3.7 WAR. He has had two years over 6 WAR in his career.
He signed his current deal prior to the 2036 season, a six year deal worth 118 million. He has four more years for 19.68 mil apiece. The last is a player option. Should he leave that on the table?

i would love to see an honest (i.e not devils advocate) justification for this being yes.

Sweetworld is NEVER going to get that deal on the open market. Keep riding it and tie up LV's cap with your negative asset self, Juan!

He shouldn't opt out. But..... For an extremely popular left handed hitting cf with a +6 zr and decent vs rhp ratings.... He probably isn't as overpaid as you guys are making it seem. I can easily see him getting $15 million for a team with a black hole in cf.
