There is no more overrated player in sports, period, than Chris Archer. He's a #3/#4 starter because his FIP and xFIP are horrendously overrated by his desire to go 8 pitches to every batter to bump up his K-rate. He really should be a closer.

I would give them a package of Carson Kelly, Junior Fernandez, and some past first round disappointment, like Nick Plummer, who will never amount to anything, and the Cardinals should probably push them for relief help coming back.
Hometown paper throwing shade on Archer as an "Ace".
