We're in a rebuild. Treliving made moves before he knew the team at the start of the rebuild cycle. It does not logically follow that he would continue to make those exact same type of moves when our salary structure is different and we're at a different point in the rebuild. There is no trend. Each offseason is a separate and unique scenario that they analyze differently. You can't read the past into the future.
