This winter, cyber-Seattle will apparently come to middle ground -- that you cannot use a 'win value standpoint' to evaluate trades of prospects for ML stars.  The paradigm is busted because it overlooks the prospects standing in line behind the traded players.
But the important thing is that this time around, we can all enjoy the victory that is gained in 3-for-1, 4-for-1 deals that haul in Marquee Players.

Jeff
