You know, they got Lafreniere in the draft.
They got Capocacco in the draft.
And they struck out, I think, on both of those players going all the way to the bottom to get them.
And so that can happen, too.
Everybody wants you to tank, you know, finish in the top five.
And then you make a couple of picks that don't pan out.
That can be disastrous.
Well, I think, again, it has to do with, you know, what he gets in return.
And I don't think you could expect a whole lot in return for a Nolichari.
He might be better off just keeping him.
You know, Anthony Manta.
I kind of look at Anthony Manta as like a long-term rental this year.
You know, if you were making a deal to get a guy like Anthony Manta at the trade deadline, you'd be renting him, right?
So now just look at it as like he's renting him for the rest of this year.
He might end up signing him to an extension.
I can see that happening.
So he already kind of has his guys.
You know, he made a couple of key deals before the season to get these guys, and they made that Tommy Novak deal last year.
So he's already kind of acquired players who are, you know, in the case of Manta, he's on an expiring contract.
