I definitely lean to potential more than likelihood, but I generally come to trade value as the bottom line.

What is Mackey worth if you dealt him today?
What is Fox worth if you dealt him today?

For me that takes you right into why they are running neck and neck. Mackey is a guy that you can put on your roster to start the season on a nice cost controlled contract. He'll play.

Wolf is a guy with upside but some limitations that may keep him from securing that upside, so he's not worth the return of say Carter Hart 18 months ago. But as he moves through his young career that will become more clear.
