I think the jury is still out on the trade, and we can determine at the end of this year if it was a plus, minus, or even.
I think it's too early to call it a misstep, and even if it doesn't work out, we can't really fault Veach for trying.

I agree with this. It looks like he will be on the team this fall too, as his 1.7 million salary is fully guaranteed.
