Interesting move ahead of the start of the year:

Im not sure if this is false memory, but I felt like he would kill us in games. Solid left handed power off the bench. I would assume its over Descalso and I think this is a win.

Probably a win, but when will they just trust Happ and Bote to be our bench guys? Souza has looked horrible in left field and we are pinned over the salary cap.

Hopefully this is so we can flip him and Souza at the deadline, maybe Kipnis too.

Dietrich hit like .180 last year

He still walks a good bit and has plenty of power. The average is probably an outlier and he, basically, replaced Descalso. Its a win

A dead Opossum would be an improvement over Descalso !!

asked to be released and he got it. I guess he will go hit homeruns elsewhere.
