    Or maybe he could tell it was a buyer's market from those deals since he reportedly came to that conclusion?

    Goldschmidt for Kimbrel?...so AJ Preller is Henry.
    Marshall: MILSWANCAs?

    Because getting one side of the story and not knowing the entire context tells us everything we need to know.

    AJ: How about we give you Kimbrel, Tyson Ross, a comp balance pick, and (insert whatever top prospects he has remaining here) for Goldschmidt?

    Dave: Nah

    Dave to media: Those fools asked for Goldschmidt in talks for Kimbrel!

    I'm obviously not saying that's how it went down. I'm just providing an example of one of the many different types of scenarios that can be filled into the context we don't have from a report that just has Dave Stewart saying he asked for Goldy.

    Of course, he could have asked for him straight up knowing what the answer would be when in reality he didn't want to give him to a division rival? You can make a complaint about tact if that's the case but it's still not the same as painting a scenario where he thinks that's a reasonable offer.

    On the day I traded DK for milkshakes, he makes a thread.

    I guess he's the Senior Advisor to the janitor.

    Everything he touched fell into a buyer's market.

    So, it's a buyer's market yet he's an idiot for not selling his players for under value.

    Ok

    Because it's not as if we just witnessed the busiest trade deadline we can remember in spite of a buyer's market.

    Or maybe it's just that your Rockstar GM desperately believes his Dream Team is still in it.

    Because activity is directly equivalent to value.
