I view Stroman more as a good 3 too as opposed to a guy who leads a staff. I think his value to fans is greater because outside of Thornton he's the only starting caliber pitcher they currently have on the roster.
For me, he isn't a guy you pay 20mill or more a year when you are starting a rebuild. I'm not of the belief he's going to net a haul but he should net 1 very good to upper end prospect and 2 decent to good ones. For a team just starting a rebuild that is a bet i'd make personally.
