Which hypothetical trade would you like the most for us to make? The NYK trade is a no brainer, to me, and helps facilitate something far larger. I think the minute Bogi gets healthy you make this move if not sooner. That first + Stew (potentially) + expiring’s makes it a lot easier to get a good player than just a bunch of expirings for a team to have Cap Space in the same shitty FA summer we don’t even want to have cap space.
The main value in getting the pick back is we can trade it. As of now we can’t do that
I know, my point is that the protected pick isn’t valuable to NY. which is why I think it’s a reasonable trade. It’s significantly more valuable to us than it is to them
