100 percent.
I always side with the players on compensation.
Kennedy was an effective reliever last year and still profiles well there. Moore will move him for something by their trade deadline, though probably not for as much as they would have gotten has Glass approved the deal Moore has in place with the Braves. [Reply]
Obviously Kennedy isn't providing the value he is getting paid, but I definitely wouldn't kick a reliever off the team that is averaging 4.3 strikeouts to every walk, carries a solid ground ball rate and saw his velocity go up in a bullpen role. Kennedy would be a good sixth inning relief option, maybe seventh inning, on a championship squad. [Reply]
