First of all, you don't trade young prospects for veteran assets unless you are making a move to win a championship.  So any idea that the Giants should trade for veteran players to bolster their roster for a Wild Card push this year would be insane. If they get younger prospects that catalyze improvement, that's fine.

Bumgarner and Smith are both Free Agents after this season.  If the Giants want them and they want the Giants, they can both be re-signed and and get prospects for a couple 2-3 month rentals. It would be insane not to trade them even if the Giants are sniffing Wild Card contention.

I still want Miguel Andujar from the Yankees as my top trade asset. A 24 YO 3rd baseman on IL with torn Labrum in shoulder this year, with four years until he's eligible for Free Agency. Slashed .297/27/97 with a .855 OPS in his one year (2018) as a starter.  The Yankees have a strong pen, but really need a starting Pitcher. 

The Red Sox, Nationals, and Cardinals need bullpen help badly, and I'm guessing most other contenders do too, so Smith should fetch some intriguing prospects.
