Did zambranos vesting option get voided in the trade?

It was actually a player option, but yes, it was eliminated as part of the trade. It didn’t mean much, as he probably would not have exercised had he finished in the top four in the Cy Young voting.

Oh ok I knew he wouldn’t pitch well enough for it to vest but just to be thorough, I for some reason thought it was vesting

Good luck with that option Kevin Gregg. Unless the entire rest of the Orioles relief staff unexpectedly dies you’re gonna be signed to a minor league deal with the worst team in baseball not named the Orioles by this time next year.
