He has no leverage to negotiate. Slot value is basically for budgetary purposes.

This is why juniors leave. $140k haircut on $186k slot value sucks.

Man, I think that sucks. Looks to me like nasty Nate needs to hang up his cleats and begin to sort out what he is going to do to make a living for the rest of his life….

I think Ack has a chance to stick and make it to the majors eventually with hard work and a few breaks.
