If we trade Johnny for a top prospect before the deadline, here’s what we actually get:
- top prospect in a trade
- likely a better 2021 draft position
- 6.75M in cap-space
- more flexibility when it comes to the expansion draft
It is the best path forward for this team in my eyes.

If the price isn't there now, just wait it out since there's the offseason and next season still. GM's are desperate, and will overpay to get players when they really think they have a shot at a run.

If we don’t trade Johnny before free agency 2021 kicks off, he gets trade protection where he can list 5 teams he can be traded to.
