I hope I'm wrong or an extension may be harder than if he chose to be here.

It's a sign of respect to the other ball clubs that were looking to trade for him. Apparently our conditional pick was more than most people were offering so that helped us, but you'd better believe he'd rather play here than Buffalo or Oakland.
