Would you have made this trade? I basically needed help everywhere and needed a starter more than an outfielder. Plus, I'm salivating over how good Franco could become. Little worried about Glasnow in the next few years but hopefully he can help the rotation.

You got a steal.
I probably wouldn't have allowed myself to make the trade.
That said,
I'm not super impressed with what you got
Franco is a real life stud. But doesn't look the same in the game.
Getting 5 years of Glasnow (depending on his contract) for a year of Hanniger looks like the steal.
As does an MLB ready Franco for a 18 year old pitcher.
So, I think you won the trade - too much so.
But that version of Franco doesn't look like the by far #1 prospect in baseball
