Because we want to target clarke at 5 if hes available and its a better chance than hoping hes there at 9.
we need to bet that we will be a good team in 2024 so its a low 1st which is worth the risk imo
we had the highest scoring defense in the league this year, we dont need schmidts offense we need a big bruiser dman that we can get in a trade or UFA if we clear schmidts 6 mill deal. Quinn, myers, rathbone bring more than enough offense. Time to get dirty and find a big dude dman or a younger D guy to add to the backend.
