The Rays won 99 games last year, but need dominant pitching to make a deep playoff run. This is a risky win now trade with a couple of lottery picks attached. I’m a believer in Bradley, but right now in the Rays window they need to make the moves to win a series. I would make this move and keep Glasnow to have a formidable 1-2 for 2024. They both could then net draft picks after QO to reload for the future, or if the Rays aren’t well positioned to win the ALE, could be flipped at the deadline. Now, if one or both get hurt… but that’s the risk you gotta take (especially given the Rays pitching situation).

The Rays aren't selling their future to go all in on 2024. Not with a black hole at SS, a historically high payroll (at 50% higher than it has ever been), and a pitching staff that has absolutely no depth (and several starters with lengthy injury histories and an inability to pitch much more than 100 IP per year).
