Atkins and Shapiro are both shrewd managers who don't like to sell on prospects and are good at analyzing talent.

They aren't going to give up on these guys unless they think the return is worth it.

I have faith in trusting Atkins and Shapiro here because IMO they've proven that they understand these players and prospects a lot better than we do.

Hell fans didn't like that we "only" got SWR and Kay for Stroman to start with because they weren't top prospects....now we are mad we traded SWR who developed into a top prospect.
