I approached Drew a few days ago when I was in second place and back 12-17 points. My thought at that time was depth for my active roster as well as my farm. Then today I'm in first place and really debated if I should trade Springer considering how hot he's been over the past three days since I first offered. I'm hopeful Piscotty will be able to post numbers close to Springer. I've always been a Tilson fan and have inquired a few times on him over the past two seasons. Hoping he returns soon to an everyday role. The draft pick, along with Acuna and Tilson, give me the prospect depth I'm looking for since trading my second and third rounders a few weeks ago. I'll miss Betances a lot but feel I have good RP depth.

Agreed. I agonized over trading Acuna, But ultimately decided that it was worth it for Springer and Betances. This continues to move my rebuild forward to be competitive for next year.
