I'm not sure why TD has some "splainin' to do". I think it's very simple. Bledsoe had no value on the market, so he was let go. Henry has value on the market, and is being handled accordingly.
AZ, regarding Shelton, has no leverage, as his coach made it public knowledge that he is not part of the plan there. TD, regarding Henry, has leverage, as he has made it public knowledge that he will keep Henry if he can not get fair value.
What am I missing? Why does TD have to "splain" this?
