Underhill: I think everyone involved knows Carr cannot play this year at his current salary

The money is already guaranteed to Carr and he's said he won't take less. Maybe Mickey will work some magic but I don't see a pay cut happening.

Why is it so hard to fathom that the player could have changed his mind after a level-headed sit down talk?

Not saying it is going to happen, I just think Carr’s quote should not be taken as gospel the way it has been. People change their minds and come down on demands all the time with these things.
