I had forgotten how his salary got cut after the boar injury:

Quote

NEW YORK — Yoenis Céspedes' base salary next year was cut to $6 million from its original $29.5 million as part of an amended contract with the New York Mets that avoided a grievance hearing, according to details obtained by The Associated Press.

The oft-injured outfielder, however, would raise his pay to $20 million if he has 650 plate appearances.

Céspedes agreed to a $110 million, four-year contract in December 2016 but could lose as much at $29.6 million under the amended deal. He hasn't played since July 20, 2018, and has topped 321 plate appearances just once since 2015.

So, he's really only walking away from a couple of million.

He is a 26 year old left-handed pitcher for the Detroit Tigers that struck out all nine batters he faced in a recent contest against the Cincinnati Reds.

I looked him up since.  He's a TCU product from SLC.

Nothing in his minor league career makes him look like a strikeout pitcher, or a particularly interesting prospect.
