I’m somewhere between 2 and 3. I wouldn’t say the price was steep, I just think Hall could be somebody and I hate giving him away for a one year rental.
The best option for a team with such minimal payroll commitments would be free agency. I guess we have to try to evaluate the trade under the details of new ownership, we just don’t know what those parameters will be. If you can spend to make up for the loss of someone like Hall, or can even extend Burnes, it looks a lot better.
