Yeah, that's the other side of it for sure. Rather than spending high end prospect capital on older hyped players, you almost just want them to keep doing what they're doing.
Make key additions wherever possible by signing free agents (like Ryu) rather than by risking trading the next Syndergaard for a couple underwhelming years of an RA Dickey type veteran.
