Vida Blue Offers Play Out Option With A s
Vida Blue and his attorney Robert Gerst outlined a deal in which the pitcher would play for Oakland for 50 000 or up to 90 000 this season without signing a formal contract, preserving free agency after 1972. Finley has invoked the reserve clause and offered 50 000 with renewal talk, while Gerst criticized arbitration avoidance and urged direct negotiation. Blue seeks a salary he deems fair, not the top figure, and remains focused on a resolution within the week.
