I would make that trade.
Mango is a great player, but he's SUPER hot right now. All time high hot. He's likely to come back to earth at least a bit. The fact is we have other players in the same mold as Mango who we could hope will fill his role for less money. We don't have a jack eichel comparable piece.
+ I think there is likely a lot of pain in our future in resiging mango. You could tell he felt slighted (maybe rightly) by the last round of contract negotiations. We're going to have to pony up if we want to keep him. I am not sure he will be worth it at 7 long term. He probably looks at coleman at least and says "i deserve more than him."
