you here but the pieces only fall into place IF MP exhibited EB type character. He did not and he only got more dramatic/chaotic on and off the field as time went on. More meltdowns on the field at the worst times happening more and more as time went on.
Now is the best time to trade because how can you trust this kid not to have more meltdowns and then try to trade him next year to a team that now has to pony up big $$ for a talented BUT Diva type player? You want the team you are trading to be 'incented' by the rookie contract with a year or more remaining so they get him cheap and have the chance to cut bait IF he doesn't work out for them. You can't do that in his 5th year and expect to get more value in better picks.
