Marginal News: Booth to be Back
Seeing his long face on the bench didn't mean he was unhappy. Booth invoked his player option for the league minimum, and will be back protecting the bench next year.

It's just hard to understand why King gave him a player option in the first place.
This was one of King's remarkable skills: bidding against himself. Was Calvin Booth so sought after that we needed to get him for {i] two [/i] years? If only BK had learned to be prudent with contracts, he could have been a very good GM.
