The one thing I hate the most about this trade is the conditional 3rd. It just makes BT look better it we lose the trade.
If you are gonna make the trade, then just make the damn trade and maximize your return.
I would rather see a 5thor a 6th coming back with no conditions.
Make the trade, wipe the slate clean and move on with what you have rather than scoreboard watching the coilers all season.
Will be interesting BOA though.
