For any dissenters, I’d like to make this point:
After he signed, Aaron Ashby missed all of 2023 with a shoulder injury, had shoulder surgery, then had oblique issues, and still nobody is complaining about his contract. I’m glad he’s signed to it - I’m glad we have him.
Obviously the dollars and structure aren’t going to look the same — but the point is that you do these deals and bad things happen, you can still operate as a small market team. It doesn’t really hurt.
