Sending Gelof and Thomas to facilitate a Crochet trade is an aggressive move. Flipping Crochet for Bohm is a mistake. Bohm is a bad defensive 3B and if you're going after someone with only 2 years of control you shouldn't pass on the Ace.

I guess I don't consider Crochet to be an Ace, and he's struggled to stay healthy. Bohm's defense has improved enough for me to take a shot and flip two guys with huge contact issues. Like you said: aggressive!
Bohm's defensive improvement could be a flash, like J.D. Davis showed "improvement" before reverting back to his career norm. Crochet would have to slip a lot (or get injured) for his value to crater. Bohm, if his glove slips back to pre-2024 levels, might be a non-tender a year from now.
