Sweeney has a career reverse platoon splits, so he probably isn't the best guy for that role.. If theres any team out there willing to pay $3.5mil for Kotchman, I wouldn't mind Sweeney stealing his role (considering the positive clubhouse presence).
Can Sweeney still play a competent 1B? That would be my biggest question..
Washburn shouldn't cost much more than $3.5mil to sign either...just saying.. I doubt the Ms will attempt to trade Kotchman anyhow, and I don't think there would be any takers at that price.
