I do think you are skating by the value of players that, if they weren't here, you would wish we had someone like that. Or minimizing players as being worth 0 when they just aren't fully worth what their contract is.
FWIW I don't think it's an awful outcome to keep THJ/Bertans till their contracts expire, if the alternative is just air. I would rather see them play up to their contracts, or be used as a trade asset, rather than tossing them in the trash with no way to replace them, much less do better.
But most of all, I think you are creating many holes that you won't even begin to fill ...while having no one you can add that is worth more than the guys you are discarding.
IN YOUR IDEAL WORLD (best case scenario)...
Who are you replacing THJ/Bertans with, and at what price point?
Who would you get with the rest of the cap room, and how would that be better than what he is replacing?
