Another thing with KP's value that no one talks about...
What can he do in playoff atmosphere?
Small sample size...but he killed it last year. If we make it and he duplicates that...he should be more valuable, imo. Market dictates things...I get it. You have to have a willing and able buyer.
What I am trying to say is...the missed games is annoying...but lots of guys are load managing these days...and, sure...KP got hurt in a playoff series last year which hurt the team...BUT what really matters in a KP deal is what a Unicorn can do in the playoffs.
If he was Shaq...teams wouldnt care about his missed games in season...they know the guy can produce in playoffs. KP isnt Shaq...but I think he can produce in playoffs...which should be taken seriously in negotiations.
You cant pay a guy 30+M and he miss playoff games, though.
