Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

Incoming hate for this, but I'm INTO IT!!!

Didn't even have to give anything up and get an interesting player (albeit an expensive one, considering we're talking about a rookie deal still).

What does this do to the tax line? I imagine there's still something that needs to be outgoing in another deal for financial purposes...right?

This will eat most of the space under the tax.  We had about $14mm and Risacher makes $13.8.  So the remaining space is basically the $2mm for Nembhardt.  We have about $7mm left from the TPE. 

I’m into it also.  Accumulating looks at talent without long term commitments similar to Aldama and Sasser.   Atlanta, Detroit and Memphis basically gave these guys away to prioritize something different.  The main thing is that the set us up for a fairly sizable consolidation trade at some point in the next couple of years
