Yeah, I'm pretty nervous about it.
I got lulled into a false sense of security as the disruptive designation and the wording about him being unliked by, well, pretty much everyone, wasn't there while he was on the FA list. I knew he was a risk, but was hoping he wasn't as big of a risk as he actually is.
Still, he's the best darn reliever in the league and given the workload he usually shoulders and his durability, he's more valuable than relievers usually are. Will it be enough to make up for his bad influence in the clubhouse? I can only hope.
What I really find myself wondering is- should I feel the need to trade him later, will there be any takers and will I get any value in return? If so, this might not be the worst thing. If not, I might have shot myself in the foot with this one.
