There are a lot of pieces they can deal to get back good value. That's the positive here.

I mean, my first choice is they win the WS. Maybe the NL folds part way through the year or something...it could happen.
But I agree if they arent a competitive playoff team (say 1st wild card in AL or better) I'd rather they be out of it enough to sell.
Vlad/Bo/Bassitt/Scherzer/Green/Swanson are all UFA after this year - if you traded them all at the deadline you'd get a huge haul of prospects.
