I think it's very likely that he waits until he's free agent to sign, but I'm not sure that signals anything about him wanting to leave. I think it's more about maintaining leverage over the roster building process and encouraging management to spend.

But, I guess keeping his options open is a positive bonus result for teams hoping to snag him.
