DM agreed to essentially void his 3 option seasons in 2017-19. They were worth $15m. He got a 6/52 instead starting in 2017. So instead of avg 5/per he got 8.75/per with signing bonus of 6 upfront.
Anyway, since then he’s been worth 1.8 fWAR total in three years. Not good Salvy.

I thought you were done with Fangraphs WAR?
Their C metrics are particularly weird because of the dramatic emphasis they place on pitch framing?
Perez is 2.5, 2.4 in 17 and 18 on BRef, which is superior, IMO.
He was hurt all of this season and obviously provided no value (the team likely also recouped a good portion of his salary in insurance, which is standard for almost all big deals like his.
He needs to provide 6.5 wins over the course of his deal to meet market value. He’s most likely going to do that.
Re: trading him... always easy to say “trade the guy for a haul!” ... finding the team with the need and willingness to pay a price that makes it worth moving him is another thing.
