I can't find the original post to quote, but that Athletic write-up saying that Conroy has lost every trade he made is dumb for so many reasons.

First, most of the trades he made either included futures or was straight up for futures. It will take years to fairly judge the trades (Tanev and Zadorov trades for example).

Second, the Toffoli and Lindholm trades are showing really good early returns.

Third, it's impossible to say if something is a bad trade when you don't know what else was on the table, if anything at all.
