Young and cheap. Those are the key words. Since those words are such a key, I take it that the trade with Washington wasn't really about this year, like Wayne wants everyone to believe.
If it's about this year, you take Wickman for a nothing prospect (like the Braves did).
Instead, other than Bray, we basically got nothing and gave up a whole helluva lot.
