Prospects flame out regularly. Often their value peaks long before they hit the majors and sometimes it’s best to capitalize on the opportunity when you know they are likely at that peak.
Despite a not so spectacular season for Berríos (it’s been decent), it was still a win.

Precisely this. Would still make the Berrios trade all over again.
Have to go for it in this competitive window. Both guys coming back are club controlled. Helps us win now, which is fun
