Bird in the hand is worth two in the bush boys.
Love the move. Love making a move to try to improve this team based on actual players and not some unknown draft pick who would be the 2nd coming of Jesus or Rico Fata's brother Jimmy Fata.

You can't possibly be that short sighted. You realize that his salary is going to increase each contract if you want to keep him? You realize that you are setting a salary structure with that contract. If Baertschi scores 88 points to O'Reilly's 55 next year are you going to pay him $8M on his next contract??
