As a quick follow-up to Johnson's ridiculous demands, I decided to shop him around on July 31. Kansas City, who was a game above .500 at the time, offered me Eric Hosmer straight up.
Eric Hosmer!
So now I have Hosmer and Rizzo both in AAA. I don't really know what I'm going to do from here, but it's better than talking Johnson down from $190M.

Did you try negotiating with him at all? If so, how did it go?
