That’s giving away Andersson for a few months of Robertson. That’s might work for a handful of contenders, but that isn’t where this team is.
I have more faith in the current management group than to think they get in this pool. If Conroy did entertain such a deal it would signal to me that he’s being tasked with winning now and incomplete builds tend to result in more building. I trust all involved in the process know this.

What? The only way Conroy is trading for Robertson is if there is an agreed upon extension with the trade, lol. I thought that went without saying. He would not trade for Robertson as a rental, man.
