Does Arizona have the money to re-sign him at the end of the season? If not the draft pick for qualified free agent would probably be more than we would get from AZ.
Given Gallen is a FA after this year, they might see this as their best chance to win a WS. It also might be another reason trading for another pending FA might not be the best move.
True but if they sign Helsley they don't get compensation when he leaves. I'm sure they would like to have him if they are in contention but I doubt they would give much for him.

I am hoping they cash in on Helsley. I doubt it happens but if it does happen in May that truly means the leverage was with STL and it's a good thing.
I'm sure they won't do Lawlar so forget that dream. They have a group of players after Lawlar that have potential. Getting two of them for Helsley is a must make move for Mo. And hey folks, Bloom will have some right to dispute and deal in the works.
If STL can add 2 guys inside the STL top 15 prospects its a good deal.
