I don't think it makes much sense to give up assets to protect would be 37 year old Giordano who has already shown signs of slowing down.
I could definitely see Seattle having the choice of Giordano, Bennett, Kylington and Rittich and probably going with Gio to be the much needed veteran presence for them that either gets moved at the deadline or maybe gets extended for a year or two.
But giving away Bennett and Kylington just to keep 6.75 million on the books makes pretty much 0 sense
