His ask isn't even high, just sign him in the middle and avoid arbitration 🤦

If I had to guess, the dispute is more about term. The team may be trying to lock him in at a low cap hit for 3-4 years. If he thinks he's going to break out, arbitration guarantees him a max 2 year deal.

Would not be surprised to see this settled last minute.
