How can you take that risk with these main pieces?
10 guys in contract years. A couple of promising rookies in Coronato and Pelletier looking to carve out a permanent spot. Duehr and Ruzicka rounding into solid full time players. The rest of the roster should be significantly motivated to have way better seasons plus a new coaching staff wanting to make an impression.
No one can see the future but it's not impossible that the team is high in the division at the trade deadline and well positioned for playoffs. Not a chance Edwards lets these guys be traded at the deadline and a playoff team taken off the tracks.
