If that were true then let a monkey handle the negotiations. Let Jay Feaster handle the negotiations. After all, the GM can’t control the market, right? Fans would be idiots for thinking he took a worse return on purpose for Iggy and Bouw than what the market dictated, right? We should look back on him with reverence.

If you go back to my post and what I was responding to you’ll see that’s clearly not what I said.
Difference between a crap return and a return below what are unreasonable expectations
As for Feaster, it was hard to get a better return when 12 would only go to two teams…and then one
Bouwmeester was an error because he had a year remaining and didn’t need to be dealt for a poor return right then
